Need some advice from the pros out there please. Family emergency. Must fly out of state very unexpectedly tomorrow early afternoon. Listings are due to end tomorrow evening and Thurs. eve. 13 in all. Only 3 have bids but are no reserve, so esentially, they're sold items. I won't be in any position to contact people...will be out of touch with a computer. I think I should end them and email the bidders telling them my situation and that I will reslist as soon as I am able to return. Will I get in any trouble with eBay for so many endings at one time??? Never had this before...hope to never again. Any advice appreciated....Hurry Please!!! Thank you.

There is no problem with ending your auctions considering the circumstances. Just make sure to cancel all the bids. When you choose to "End Auction Early" youwill get the option to "Cancel All Bids".
Thanks for that bit of information. I've never had to end an auction with bids before, and I was under the impression that you would have to cancel each bid manually before ending it. I wasn't aware of the option to end all bids at one time. I'll file that tidbit away.
The light at the end of the tunnel will turn out to be an oncoming train.
