Time Away Stopped Showing on Listings

[alise114]

I've not had this issue before but I am unable to drive for a week and I have therefore set up a time away for my items, indicating I can't post before Thursday 27th March.  This has been working fine until today.  I have listed several items today and the time away notification is not appearing on the listings - in fact it is saying that estimated delivery is 26-27 March and everything will be in time for Mother's Day (which is not true).

I've checked my time away settings and nothing has changed. I'm really concerned about letting a buyer down if they don't receive the message.  The only thing I can think of doing is to add in a bold font message with my own wording at the top of each listing.

Is anyone having the same issue?

No one has informed us of this issue, but important enough that you are experiencing this.

I really recommend Not to write anything no matter how big the caps that you cannot post by **day, this is not sufficient and would not protect you against late delivery marks and worse still item not received cases could be opened,  you wouldn't wish to return to a glut of those.

If I go away or cannot post for a time,  I just end all listings,  then relist when I'm able to post the items again.  Ending the items they will go into your unsold listings for 60 days in you are on My eBay Selling and for a maximum of 90 days if on the Seller Hub.  You can relist your items from there during those periods.

In my humble opinion the best and safer option.

I am on time away and so far it is still there on my listings ,but my partner removed his listings completely to be sure there were no muck ups ,so much changing on ebay you are never sure what will happen next .

On a PC all of your listings state "The seller is away until 26 Mar, 2025. If you buy this item, expect a delay in postage."

The estimated delivery dates currently showing are " Estimated between Thu, 27 Mar and Mon, 31 Mar ".

I'm guessing the estimated delivery dates should change every day (get later).

Thank you. Must have been a delay.
