Keep positive. It will get better.

Keep positive. It will get better.

No low foreheads.

One of the classic idioms of all time:

This too shall pass.

Eons of human history have proven that to be true.

I was just ready to give up on eBay. Thanks for letting me know. I can sleep better now knowing "It will get better".

Just for planning purposes, are you talking days, weeks, months, this year, next year? 🙄

Soon.

(For the uninitiated that is described as "After now, but before later")

What is "it"? And can you explain "low foreheads"?

Otherwise, will certainly take your advice.

@soh.maryl 

I think “low foreheads” is equivalent to a furrowed brow.

Is that "soon":

1) eBay seller time

2) eBay management time

3) Geological time

Oops, missed your definition. Looks like you need selection 4. After choice 2, but before choice 3. We are lucky to be living in today's world where everyone can create their own definitions. 🙄

Thanks for the uplifting post. Yes, It’s always a roller coaster with sales on here but they always recover. And THIS is still a top website overall. Good luck.

I think "it" is your troubles !!!

It hasn't been better in the past 15 years.  I don't care about my head going down I do care about my bank account going down.  This site is not sustainable.

Thank you.  Just when I think I am up to date on current jargon/terminology, I get thrown a curve.

I don't know what you are drinking but it needs to be banned.  This is not a top platform, not when it loses GMV quarter over quarter for the past 2+ years.  This is not a top site that the total focus is keeping share holders paid every quarter.  I'm sure you are aware of the quarter, I think three past, where eBay sold 1.1$bil in stock of a company they owned out right so that the share holders could be paid $1.02 a share that quarter.  That influx of capital changed a negative $600mil into a $500+ mil profit quarter.  That is a ship going down.  The only increases in market share eBay is making is by reducing the net profits of Sellers, they are not growing the site.
