I have a wishlist book order pending, no response, about to time out and go to the next person.  I checked, and the person ordering has their shelf on hold.

I know that if someone has their shelf on hold, they can still put wishlist books on auto-request. (I know, since I do this myself) However this request *isn't* an auto-request.

So:  How and why is this wishlist book being ordered, if the person's shelf is on hold, and it isn't an auto-request?  Shouldn't the book be offered to the next person waiting for it?  I'm confused.

If the request was on AR but they are out of credits it will go into the regular 48hr hold to give them the chance to buy them.

Hopefully the person will be able to check the account. I had my account on hold when I went on vacation (I couldn't fill any orders with my books 1000 miles away, LOL!), but I was still able to log in regularly to check the status of my account.

If your bookshelf is on hold, it only means people can't request books from  you. 

My acc't is on hold now (because of $$) but I can still request from other people.  My WL is on auto-request, so any books I'm next in line for  that come up will get sent to me.  (two this week after a drought-yay!) . 

I can still get online here, PM, and post on the message boards.
