USPS Closed Monday, June 20

Reminder to sellers: plan your shipments accordingly.

This is the first year USPS will be closed for Juneteenth, but it appears eBay did correctly factor it in to ship-by dates.

Items with 2 day handling sold today are accurately reflecting a June 21 ship-by date.

@wastingtime101 interesting you are seeing it reflected correctly. I've seen one report from a seller on twitter that something they sold on 6/15 with a 5 day handling time was showing ship by 6/22, so it did not seem like they were accounting for the holiday properly.

I tagged Velvet and Devon on another thread about it but maybe (hopefully) eBay has already corrected it.

I don't know @valueaddedresource. On GF's account she sold a few things today starting around 2:00 AM PT and she uses 2 day handling. All of her sales reflect 6/21 ship by.

I use next day handling so I won't be able to check my ship by dates until tomorrow.

I expect if you want a decent test pool you'll need to find sellers with 3 or more days handling time that can tell you what their sales from today reflect.

@wastingtime101  Velvet just confirmed the update was made this morning and there will be protections for anyone with affected orders from before the update. 👍
