    I raised prices, and ...

    ... the good news is that it had absolutely NO effect.

     

    The bad news is that I'm still not selling anything.

    Since you use Bin/Best offer, I would check your new preferences eBay put on your listings with a default set to YES.  They certainly seem to be discouraging buyers in that it limits their payment options and combined shipping is removed.

    Buyer Payment Requirements


    *Require buyers to provide a payment method before they place a bid.

    *Require buyers to provide a payment method before they make an offer.

    Ouch...that last negative feedback was a statement...which everyone can read...and buyer had one feedback which you sold an item to. I would have refunded this buyer immediately and sent something for free. It helps with the feedback. New buyers can be picky. And keep the emails back and forth down to a very very minimum.

    And sometimes responding to such a feedback will make it worse since other buyers can read it. So no feedback can be better than responding. I just thought I thrown that out.

    "Had no effect" meaning it went from 0 sales to 0 sales?
