Can somebody or a few people check out my account? I've called eBay CS and checked myself, but something seems wrong with my account.
From 10-20 sales a day to 1-3 sales a day...I know, I know...lots of these threads, but would REALLY appreciate it.
Went from $150-250 a day to barley breaking $50 on most days. Huge sale, 60 days returns, 1 day handling, etc.
Life is getting hard with how horrible it's been. Thanks in advance for any help.

My last 3 of 8 sales were long sleeve button downs and one hoodie. I don't agree with people 'not listing' long sleeves and such during the summer. Many states here, and many countries overseas have cold weather all year around.
Yes I saw your sold listings for April.
But now we are inching along to May.
And as far as selling to countries overseas, especially ones in the southern hemisphere which are opposite to us, if it were me I would concentrate more on the US. Do you get a lot of international sales on clothes? One would think they could buy cheaer in their own country and avoid shipping charges, currency changes, and border fees.
But of course you asked for opinions and that was mine. If I were looking for clothes I would want to see listings pertaining to our current weather, like you do in the stores. Summer wear is throughout the store, with a rack or two of high clearenced winter apparel somewhere in the back of the store.
It just makes your listings look fresher and that they have been recently updated.

Thank you for the kind words and suggestions. I will take gerything into account and keep listing away and hope that helps. Will also bulk edit and see if I can add more item specifics in listings that need it and such.
Another thing jn I'm going to try is list lower, with smaller % sales...I usually list somewhat in the high end, and then mark 40% so it appears to be a huge savings. I'm thinking maybe the high price point to begin with might place me in the search lower, and keep me there even when a sale is running. I'm going to reduce my listing prices 30% and run 10% off sales instead. Hoping the lower LISTING price will boost the ranking. Along with what you all have suggested.
Thanks again everyone for your input!

hones - I've slowed down this month on Ebay as I have on the other site I sell on. The Facebook forums have lots of people chatting about how sales have slowed down for many - no matter which venue they sell on. Don't get discouraged. Change up some of your keywords and see what happens.

Oh I agree. It still quite cold here in Missouri. I'm trying to sell my some shoes for 50 dollars and still haven't got anywhere but this is my first attempt so that could be why.
