Going on a road trip!

I’m going to be gone for a while next month, so I will be putting my eBay store “on Vacation.”  This is a handy little setting that eBay has available for store owners who might be away for a short time. 

eBay will put a note at the top of each page that says: 

This seller is currently away until mm/dd/yyyy (it lets you fill in whatever date you want here), and is not processing orders at this time. You can add this item to your watch list to purchase later.

There is also an option for a personal message on my store front—I may put up something like this:

I am away and not able to send items out until February.  If you do buy and pay for an item, please keep in mind that I cannot send it out right now.  Thank you for looking! 

I did the same think last June when we went to West Virginia….and I still sold a few items while gone.  I emailed the buyers and they were very understanding about the delay in receiving their purchases. 

But, that’s two weeks away—so for now, I’m still listing and listing some more!
