alter listings to out of stock

[carpartsd]

I'm going into hospital for a week. I had an online conversation with ebay where they said I could, with a couple of clicks alter all my listings to 'out of stock.' They talked me through it and seems easy enough.

When I get back to selling, do I have to go through my listings one by one and alter manually the quantity available?

I've tried to alter just one of my listings to out of stock, but can't find how.

I do not have an ebay shop, so can't use 'seller is away' thing.

as a business seller it will probably be cheaper for you to subscribe to a shop,

if you are paying more than £30 in insertion fees each month you need to subscribe to a shop to save yourself some money!

apologies to me for going off track on my own question. What I can't find out about a shop is the listing fees. Do you pay ashop fee AND a listing fee?

[pixiesen2012]

when you subscribe to a shop you get free listings as part of the subscription

basic = 250 free listings for £25 + £5 VAT

featured = 1500 free listings for £69 plus £13.80 VAT
