I can't believe this is ebay in 2018, never imagined this would happen to this site. So sad. Really so sad. I don't care who's fault it is, whether it's ebay, mine, competitors, China, or whatever. Just sad.
My answer is "Bust", and sad to say that’s the truth

Why are all your recent threads title with "tell the truth"?
It sounds so negative.
As if you don't trust us.
I mean this nicely.
I understand venting threads.. and sellers who get jaded and need to be uplifted.
Keep the faith.

This month my sales are good.
Lower cost items selling than last month,
but Google picked up two of my offerings, and I'm 4th on Google results
(pointing to my eBay listings)
I should add, Google picked up my offerings
based on changes that boardies here recommended to all of us here
.. on how to optimize Google placement.

I wondered the same thing. It sounds as if everyone lies all the time, so they must be cautioned to tell the truth. But not everyone lies as a matter of course.
Sorry your sales are down, OP, I hope they pick up soon. There is still time!

Boom. I've been at the post office almost every day this week dropping stuff off. I mailed out five things yesterday, four things today and I have four more to mail on Sunday (can't do it tomorrow since I'm working).

Considering I just wasted 15 minutes of my life searching for a t-shirt I know is listed on the site and couldn't find it, I would say the search engine might need some tweaking.

Thanks! I spent a lot of time in the past few weeks listing my holiday/seasonal stuff (and my NWT Christmas gift-type things) and it has definitely paid off. I've still got a few more things I'm hoping to get up this weekend for some last-minute impulse buys but I think Christmas shopping has pretty much hit its peak for the most part.

Christsmas is always a boom here. It helps support our business greatly. Hope everyone here is seeing some good sales.

My sales are up over last year by a good bit, so I guess between boom and bust, I'd say Boom. Doesn't mean there isn't room for improvement, but for me, it's mostly a matter of : I need to get time to list more. Stuff sells, but it won't sell if I don't have it listed LOL
Honestly, I would say that's probably the biggest challenge there is. Why can't this stuff just list itself?
