Without knowing ALL the facts and figures, there is no way anybody could begin to even venture a guess that is anything more than paranoia, sour grapes, or.. simply guessing. You aren't the only one to complain that their sales here are down. On the other hand, many eBay sellers are experiencing sales that are better than ever, so.... ?
Are YOU still running as many listings, at the prices that sold previously, of the same quality and desirability, of the same *stuff* as you did in previous years? Are you selling in the exact same categories? Are there no more sellers in competition with you now than were in those past years? For most of us, the answer that competition is out there in far greater numbers, AND at the same time, there are a bazillion more online sites for buyers to shop on!
Have you searched for your own items as though you were a buyer to see where your things show up in the search order, and then checked them for price and condition in comparison with the other listings? Would YOU make the purchase from you, if you were the buyer?
As to the tweets, I didn't know folks even took that as a reason to go look at anyone's eBay listings. lol
