Can I work on listings/drafts/post new listings while store is on vacation?

[emilyandpamela]

I'm taking a month off of my store to regroup and clean out some inventory (I haven't taken a break in many years). 

I want to be able to have some fresh new listings for reopening and will be going through my unlisted while my store is shut so that I can have some new items. Can you still post listings (BIN) or save drafts (I assume they will drop off if untouched during usual timeline). I have a yearly subscription so will still be paying for my store.

Thanks for any help in advance!

You can do anything you want to do on your store when the store is on vacation....

New listings, revise listings, delete listings and everything else 

You do have some options when the store is put on vacation. 

Make sure people cannot buy anything.... 

Some people will be able to view your listings in the store.... when the store is on vacation.

You can definitely create listings and save them but I have no idea if they can be posted as I've never tried it.   Actually I haven't used the new system which is called 'time away' but I'm sure that it is fairly similar.

I plan on using the time away as it hides listings so people can't purchase it looks like

That's wise. I've never understood advertising items that are NOT for (immediate) sale.

I write my Descriptions (including HTML coding) in a Text document that I keep on my desktop.

And any scans at the same time.

That way I don't lose them to the vagarities of some random eBay glitch.

I wish I was more tech savvy to be able to code and just hoard my listings in a separate spot until I reopen to post. It looks like you can only do a month at a time so I may end up reopening, posting what I have saved, then reclose if needed
