When the seller goes on holiday or vacation would not be able to attend to their web store, it is always best to let your buyers know about it in advance. The buyers can expect late deliveries, and the seller would not be contactable during that specific time.
What the sellers can do is to:
1. Put up an announcement in their web store. This is so your buyers and potential buyers aware that you will be away.
2. Hide all of the live postings in your web store under Edit Listing (B. My Selling > 3. Edit Listing). This ensures that all your postings is not available and will be hidden in your web store, and no one can proceed to buy. How to Hide Item? Click here!
