Just a quick question - are anyone else's sales abysmal? - I used to sell 5-10 things a week, not much but the items can be higher priced so that helped. I've sold one thing in 12 days... this is not the first time this year that's occured. I get fresh lots up regularly at reasonable prices, all are unique pieces of art - accessible quality and clean. Is eBay dead? Or have I been blackballed somehow? This is my living and with accessibility issues sales are extra important. There are always sales just prior to the monthly store renewal which doesn't help aleve any suspicions.
This is an ongoing theme with ebay. Sales are tanking. Many of the vintage, collectable sellers have left this platform many moons ago. I myself have greatly difersafied to other platforms and my own which is necesary for survival and growth onto other platforms.
It seems the suits here have no idea how to bring back sellers. At one point, ebay was a treasure chest of collectable items buyers were looking for, now it's generic stuff no one really wants. Ebay has reported in the Quarterly reports that active buyers have left this platorm. It's a simply equation if you have sellers gone, buyers will leave as well.
The question is how ebay is going to address this issue.
