Hi there, you can go to your booth settings under the selling link and when you get to the booth settings page there is a (booth on vacation) setting on the left hand side that you can click yes, and that will show your booth on vacation. Hope this helps.

Before you put your booth on vacation, check and see if you have any items on reserve. Once you put your booth back to active all the items including the previously reserved items will go active.

Once you put your booth on “vacation” none of your items will be visible to anyone, everything will be put on reserve. Buyers will not see your items.

Maybe make a banner stating you’re away, and if they purchase, item won’t ship until a certain date.

Both are double edge swords. Customers can’t see your items, or they may not want to wait for your return.

Tough choice. I chose to have them see my items. Maybe they will put an item on their wish list and come back, maybe they are willing to wait for their order to ship. Maybe they just go away. At least I would still have exposure and my google feed won’t stop

I hope this helps in some small way.

Good luck
