A lot of your photos are very blurry, especially the jewelry. Many of them have dirt all over the formerly white back drop. Some of them have cluttered backgrounds. Even your ring display is covered in fuzz and needs a good clean up with a lint roller or some packing tape.

Without doing a deep dive into your listings, my initial impression is that your photos could use improvement. Work on that so you can put your best foot forward and get people to click on your stuff.

Since you didn't take the time to explain to us what is happening in your business, there is no way anyone can accurately try to help you.  All we could do is spin are wheels and guess what you might actually be asking.

Not sure if you are asking a question or asking for advice.  Many sellers are experiencing slow times and less sales.  Collectables are not a priority these days.  People are purchasing the essentials, food, gas, rent, clothing etc.  What I could suggest is lowering your prices and re calculating your shipping costs.  $5.00 isn't going to cover it for some of your items.  Some of your photos could use some work as well.  The Philadelphia Indian Head Cent is very blurry and so is the peridot ring.  Don't use flashes.  Try to shoot with natural light if you can.

Wishing you better sales in the future.

Good luck.

Are you positive that the "uncirculated Red 1887 Indian Head" is uncirculated? It looks slightly worn on the reverse side but it could be the blurry pictures.

I see several out of focus photos.  My motto is if the photo is out of focus, I do not start the ad.  Retake the photos. Get a decent camera.  Get rid of the clutter. Go to Dollar Tree and buy those foam boards in white or Oak tag and use that as a background to block the clutter.  You can use white paper for the smaller items. Make sure that the items are clean.  Nobody wants dirty items.

Some things are hard to sell. Many people today do not like stuff like vases.  I donated all of the ones that I had. I got tired of trying to sell them.   Research your prices.  Have clear descriptions.  Goodluck.  It's tough out there since there are so many selling sites nowadays.
