Something seems different?
I've had an account w/Ebay since 2001. I consider myself still a "newbie"/"novice" at the selling aspect and only dabbled in the buying process over the years. During the course of the last 2 years, I have been more heavily involved in listing items more aggressively to aid in the clearing out of my parents estate. A lot of work. I have noticed a systematic and steady decline in both sales and viewers irrespective of how I title the item, place it for a bid starting at .99c etc. (What people are willing to spend daily at Starbucks still amazes me). There is simply no traction on my items at all. This really appears to have fallen off the cliff this February vs. December of '23. I add'l noticed a complete overhaul of the mobile site home page and wondered if there are new algorithms in place such that the little guy (ME!) with little if any followers is doomed. Paying for promotions, shipping and offering a 30 day return really is a stretch for me. Guidance?

There is a selling board, Maybe interesting to read some threads there.

Also, you don't have to promote your items. And you can choose a no return policy. (For items that do not match the listing, you do have to accept a return when your buyer is asking for it.)
Good luck.
