How does the Vacation Hold affect My Wish List?

If a Wish List CD becomes available while a Hold is in effect, and the Wish List CD is NOT set to auto-request:
- you will be "passed over" for that copy
- you will retain your place on the Wish List

If a Wish List CD becomes available while a Hold is in effect, and the Wish List CD IS set to auto-request:
- if you have credit and at least 49 cents in your account to request the CD, it will be requested for you automatically, and sent to the mailing address on your account.
- if you don't have any credits/money in your account, you will be passed over for that copy of the CD, but it will remain on your Wish List in the same position.

You can choose auto-request for only those CDs you are "high up" in the queue for, as those are the ones that will most likely become available to you while you are away.

Think of your non-auto-requested Wish List items as a birthday present. Whatever is on your Wish List will be "wrapped up" by the Hold when it goes into effect, and the birthday present will be "hidden" from view by the wrapping; anything placed on the birthday present after it has been wrapped (any newly Wishlisted CDs) will not be hidden from view. This analogy also applies to how the Hold "hides" items on your CD Tower.
You can place each item on Hold as you add it to your Wish List if you don't want it to be visible to the system.
