Auctions during Time Away?

[byto253]

When you put listings on time away, what happens with auctions that are live?   Do they continue running and bids are taken while the other listings will not show?  

Just wondering as there is an item I would like to set for an auction starting tomorrow evening but I will be away during the week so need to use Time Away.  

Thanks

Here is the help page on time away. You have to go through it to see what works best for you. I've only used for GTC. Never for auctions so not totally fluent in that feature.

Thanks, it was under my nose and I missed it!  Auctions are a go, which is super and best of both worlds.  

Auction listings: When you pause item sales, buyers will still be able to see and buy your auction-style listings but they'll see a message at the top of the listing informing them that you're on time away. The estimated delivery date will also be updated in the Shipping and Delivery section.

I figured it was in there somewhere. I tend to nod off reading all the contradictory undated cut and pasted help pages. A replaces B replaces C but in case of E see B.
