How do you place a notice on your listings that you will be away?

I would like to place a notice on my listings that I will be away from My Ebay for 2 weeks.  I've seen other sellers do this but cannot find out how they did that.  HELP A.S.A.P.!!!

If you have an eBay store, you can do it, using the "vacations settings".

 

Without a store, I most strongly suggest you end your listings several days before leaving for two weeks and relist them upon your return.

 

Anything else is asking by trouble - leading to negative feedback and low DSRs.

Close all your auctions before you get bids. If you already have bidders, you will have to cancel the bids before closing or be required to sell to the current high bidder.

 

Close all your Fixed Price listings as pierre suggests, but I usually don't worry until about 48 hours before.

 

Your closed listings will stay in your Unsold for 60 days or more, so they will be easy to reopen.

Yes, you will pay again when you relist. Better than getting negs though.
