I am just at a loss for words these days. I have a grand total of 17 ORGANIC VIEWS on 2,376 listings in the last 7 hours. Officially time to branch out elsewhere.

you sell a lot of vintage goods, some collectable. The weather is nice and lot of yard sales to go after for stuff like you sell. I feel ppl would rather skip the shipping costs and find it on foot during the summer days. Surely sales will pick up after it cools down.

One humble suggestion is maybe invest in a light box, it can really make your products stand out.

It is your prices. I price checked 5 items of yours that would be easy to find identical listings. You weren't competitive on a single one of them. If you prices aren't competitive on things that are easy to price check I can't imagine they would be on other items either. Why would I click on yours when someone else has it for half the price.

You seem to sell so many different things. Imagine going into a Target Store or Goodwill Store and what aisle would your stuff be sold in...You seem to sell everything you can get your hands on. Sometimes listing more items doesn't help. Maybe trim it down a bit or pick a certain category to see what happens. You can always cancel some and also relist them again. Just a thought.

Has it improved since then?

This was posted at 7AM local time here, so the time frame would have been midnight-7AM. I'd imagine that wouldn't be the best time for views. I hope things have gotten better since then!

not yet. completely dead. My listing views which are the only thing that really matters in my opinion besides sales have been slashed by like 50% since the end of May. I have consistently grown my sales year over year for the last 8 years. averaging about $2000-$2500 a month right up until May when my Yearly Store renewal kicked in. Everything stopped after that and views and traffic have been slashed.
