It's almost 8:00 PM Hawaii time.
So far I'm having a 0 sales day.
If I don't get a sale in the next 4 hours, I'm coming back to complain. 😉

Right now I'm thankful I'm not on a daily payout because I'm sure my bank would be laughing at me.

Yeah -- I sympathize 110%.
No sales since Monday.
I haven't had a dry spell this long since 2012.
Very weird.

Well, I just had a 0 sales day. Thanks ebay.
You know, i've been a member of this community for over 20 years. I have perfect feedback.
Over the years i've given ebay literally hundreds of dollars in fees.
These new fees are ridiculous. I sell more at the flea market than I do on ebay and it costs less.
Mangled payments is ridiculous. My customers told me they don't like managed payments.
Plus I have to wait 3 days to get paid while ebay is making interest on my money?
The search is all messed up. People can't even find my stuff. Ridiculous.
This new tax rule is ridiculous! Wh do i need to pay taxes? I'm just a "hobby seller".
Do you know ebay charges us a fee on the shipping? That's just ridiculous.
Ever since the last update i've noticed a huge decline in sales. Like someone turned off a switch.
Speaking of switches, did you know ebay can "throttle" your sales?
They can turn down your sales if you talk bad about them on the boards.
Ebay just isn't what it used to be. It used to be fun to sell here. Not any more.
I've just about had it with ebay. I'm going to find a better platform to sell on.
(as soon as i sell the 315 items i currently have listed)
I'm also going to be looking in to a class action lawsuit. Maybe even a high class action lawsuit.
@inhawaii You seem to be well informed ... do you have an "inside" connection we don't know about???

Nope. I gather all my "knowledge" from other sellers on the boards.
Have a great weekend everyone!

You forgot to mention that anyone who disagrees with you must work for ebay.

Well, you can thank Biden and the Democrats for that. Oh, and the bleeding-heart liberals out in California.

Hang on to your hat the weekend is coming up and usually there are sales. In general, this is the slower time on here anyway, but we got a lot of turmoil going on in the world and inflation so some of it could be caused by cautious buying right now. I read the big R may be doing cyberattacks here so Ebay please do not get caught with your pants down on this, BEEF up your security.

While you may be joking, some of us don't think it's all that funny.
I'm on my "A" game, and this is how sales are. Inconsistent, and all over the place. A month ago, it was somewhat better. But as you can see, my sales are down 34%
I'm glad you are doing well. If I was using eBay as a full time income, I would be gone by now. eBay definitely has more control of your traffic then many here want to lead on.
While I get what you are poking fun at, and agree with it on some level, not every complaint is illegitimate. I'm not one to run around bashing eBay, but there are definitely things that don't seem to work right and it costs sellers putting in the work.
But hey, when you are up, it seems like those complaints are silly, until you are the one down.

I'm coming back to complain.
I haven't been to Hawaii in over 2 years. And it's all (insert your favorite complaint here) fault.
Mostly I blame #inhawaii though.

I'd like to try your "HI-CHEW Hawaiian "lilikoi" (passion fruit) chewy candy Hawaii exclusive NEW!" I don't think we have that in the UK.
But that 18 bucks for shipping is a killer, so it's not going to happen.
You've probably got me blocked anyway. 😁

@metaltech1 Yes, there are some real dramatic ones on these boards. I love the ones where they're leaving and never coming back, yet the majority of them are still selling. Sometimes I think Dr. Phil should monitor these boards. lol. He'd have his hands full. 😜 Have a great weekend.
