When you are scheduling auctions for next Sunday night....time SHOULD change right?

Yes, time gets set back one hour next Sunday. eBay adjusts the closing time to reflect the change.
I don't know if Halloween has much effect on auctions but since I'm going to be gone from Thursday until Sunday anyway I'm not launching any new ones tonight. There are a few that will automatically relist if they don't sell, plus the stuff in my store.
I have some pretty nice things ready to go. Will wait until I'm back to launch. So they'll close the next Sunday night.
Thanks to the wonderful people here, I know now how to put a "vacation notice" in my listings. I'll do a quick edit of the auctions that relist and change the header in my store.
Edited to add: I'll also change the promotional text in my Vendio Gallery.

I wish we could REALLY go on vacation in the ebay store, this is going to present itself to be a problem. Last summer I was gone for a long break, but I just started, and only had a few sales. I'm a bit concerned as I am going to be gone for 15 days in December. I will update the header, but not everyone looks at that unfortunately! Oh well, I can see trouble coming.
