Is this the slowest time of the year?

Sales come to a total zero, both here and the other site.

Is physical media really dead, just like brick & mortar?

I've had a very slow couple of weeks, also.

They have slowed for me, but not died completely.

Students are packing to go home--they don't want no extra books and **bleep** to pack and carry. People are buying vacation books and stuff. If at all: yesterday I shipped a 14 book lot of Lee Child overseas.

People have gardens to attend to. Family functions like Mother's Day and graduations and all that.

This question gets asked every May and then again in August (the horse latitudes was what PSThomas called them, years ago).

Normal business cycle.

When you get accustomed to the cycles you can prepare for them by listing what will sell during these periods in advance.  It's kind of like September through February in reverse.

Have not had a sale since May 1 and since then have been getting ready to redo and add a bunch of new listings. I was away mid month for a week and just got back Tuesday. 

 

Will start adding new listings this weekend. See if that makes a difference.

 

Hope ya'll have a joyous and relaxing holiday weekend!!

Michael
