Listings interference with SIMILAR items
Why does Ebay interfere with my listing with other "Similar Items".
My iistings are not clear as all my information is below the "similar items"
Since this new Action from Ebay, my sales have gone down 90%.
Can anyone help with this annoying Ebay system, so that I can List my items properly, without interference.

·2 years agoeBay's ethos is "Economic Opportunity For All."
What to you is "interference" is eBay's way of "leveling the playing field" for all sellers.
And no, no one can alter eBay's html except eBay's engineers and coders.
No one is special here. Although listings can be, and are.

I think you are talking about the Sponsored listing [promoted listing] that appears on everyone's listings. Ebay has been doing this for several years or more now. It most certainly is not new. Why is it suddenly bothering you now? How is it suddenly causing your sales to go down by 90%?
We all hate the darn things, I feel your pain and frustration. But I doubt they had anything to do with that huge sales drop.

·2 years ago@andygroup You have some excellent hat blocks there, but I'm not sure if you're listing them in the best area. I used to restore and block hats - when I quit I sold my blocks in the crafts/millinery section (not sure what it's called now) and they did well.
Just a thought from someone who used to be in the biz.

·2 years agoAds for other sellers listings have been showing for many years (perhaps about 8 years), in the past 4 or 5 years the numbers of these ads has increased.
Up until about 2 years ago you would not see them when you looked at your own listings, since that change sellers now see them on their own listings as well as every other listing.
Bottom line is that this is not a new thing and would not explain why you are having such a dramatic drop in sales.
I looked at your listings, you are selling to a tiny niche, one that is probably getting smaller and smaller every day.
