What holiday mode does
- Hides your items from search results.
- Blocks new orders.
- Keeps conversations accessible.
- Doesn't affect your ratings or account tenure.
What to do before you leave
Ship every pending order, reply to open messages, then turn on holiday mode. An order left unfulfilled while you're away gets cancelled and hurts your reliability.
Coming back: repost, don't cut prices
Many sellers lower their prices when they return, when simply bumping their listings would do. Reposting a few listings a day over several days, by hand, recreates the effect of an active closet.
