Sellers: We know you work hard to build your business and reputation on eBay. If you believe that your selling will be adversely affected—and you have an eBay Stores subscription—we strongly recommend that you put your Store in vacation mode to better control purchasing activity and to indicate to buyers that your operation has been temporarily affected by a natural disaster. We can do this for you at your request, as well.
If you are involved in an eBay transaction with a buyer or seller in of these regions, please note that their ability to communicate or complete your transaction may be delayed due to these severe conditions. We encourage you to be patient in this matter, both throughout the transaction and when providing feedback once your item arrives.
We will continue to monitor these conditions—especially in the mid-Atlantic and northeast regions—and will reach out as necessary to members who may become affected. Our thoughts are with you.
