I keep seeing tons of eBay sellers complaining about low sales. If there is a very weak economy caused by very poor leadership that would have an effect on sales. Crooks.

Ebay will ALWAYS have a number of unexperienced sellers complaining about low sales who don't know the first thing about personal accountability.
The bigger issue is that there legitimately are a slew of EBAY SYSTEM issues that are causing serious sales related problems. Problems which have been well documented and reported by very experienced sellers, people who have been doing this for 10, 20 years and more. Many of these issues have been confirmed by Ebay's technical support and CSRs.
Here, on Ebay Community Forums, Those real issues are being drown out and watered down by the people with personal accountability issues. You know it's almost like the person who cried wolf so many times, that when a wolf does finally show up and is prowling around camp, no one listens.

How can you equate Capitalism with Communism ? I suggest look up the definition to help you understand the difference.

More or less, yes, garbage economy. Also eBay is kind of a giant broken mess where they keep unnecessarily "updating" things into oblivion. Gas prices are up, food is up, inflation is up, eBay fees are up, materials cost more, less jobs, more layoffs, wages are stagnant, etc. Money has to circulate to move an economy and people aren't spending. My products are a want, not a need and become more undesirable as the publishers push customers away.
You can always have a "race to the bottom" and see which seller can pay eBay more money to take inventory off your hands.
There's a lot going on right now. And most of it sucks.

@lawnmowerpartsstore2 wrote:What percentage of US citizens have debt?According to financial experts, the percentage of Americans in debt is around 80%. 8 in 10 Americans have some form of consumer debt, and the average debt in America is $38,000 not including mortgage debt. Owing money just seems to be a way of life for Americans, as collectively we have $14 trillion in debt.
My credit rating went down because I don't have enough debt (i.e., I don't have any). Apparently down-marks for not having to make loan payments are equated with defaulting on credit card payments. Given this false equivalency, I'm wondering now how 'consumer debt' is actually reported.

That's not 'communism' - it's capitalism doing things you don't like.

Agreed, this site is broken. They don't know how to get it together like AliExpress, Temu, etc.
The economy is not the issue, as I did my best on this site during the Great Recession.

"37% of Americans do not have a retirement."
Okay; but my statement has NOTHING to do with retirement.

It looks like to me with these stats. Somebody owns us. What do you think?
Communism definition is an ideology or system that aims for a classless of society with common state of ownership of property and wealth.
