Is ebay dead

[zness]

I can't sell anything even with free shipping and being the cheapest

Sorry just discouraged

I'm sorry you are having slow sales.  Reviewing what you have for sale, I'd have to say your customer-base is extremely small and getting smaller by the day.  Vintage, antiques, rarities... not much in demand these days, and fetch far less than in the 'glory days' of the great world-wide garage sales days of eBay.

You have 14 watchers on the set of Kenwood Walkies.   

Have you tried using the "send offer" feature in seller hub.

Possibly,   If you have a little wriggle room, offer them at a 5% discount.     

Somebody might bite.

Your items are not the cheapest by a long shot.

Item 263404211167 - yours is $15 total; it is available from others for $4.88 with free shipping. Yours is 207% higher.

Item 252252589304 - yours is $24.99 total; it is available from others for $3.74 with free shipping. Yours is 568% higher. For this last item, there are 8 sold listings and the highest price realized was just $6.

Good info and there vividly shows the problem YES EBAYS DEAD in this case. The seller who sold that book for 3.74 sold a 50 oz book, shipped with all the WORK and ACCOUNTIBILITY it holds for a whopping 3.74 cents. So, if the book was free, well EVERY FAIR minded person gets the point. I know, I know those pennies add up.

I find it productive to attend shows to sell most of those type of items. 

For me, items to be sold on ebay must be UNIQUE and fully researched prior to listing.

That's my take.

Good luck.

Sorry you're not having any sales.

It feels like eBay is on Life Support and hopefully things will improve.

The best medicine to infuse Healing Energy into eBay ... is for eBay to Listen To Their Customers.

I see a $43 light with a $89 Shipping cost. In Cali- but still seems very high. I'd go to Home Depot first

Not all sellers are hurting.       Not all sellers are suffering.    

I've been selling 20 years and I'm having my best year ever.      I passed 2018 total sales in August.

Well I can tell you from experience that $34.00 for a pair of Major Oak Leaf pins is very high that is unless they are sterling or gold filled marked on the back. But for a pair of standard rank pins from WWII a fair price is less than $15.00

And even at that price they aren't rare so you'll be holding them for a while. Research your prices and be more competitive.

I disagree. The best medicine is for sellers to look at their competition and make adjustments to get buyers instead of just being complacent and starting thread blaming eBey. Did you read anyone's post that showed the reason for the OP's lack of sales ?

[rubyrunrun]

Not what it used to be. It used to be a lot easier to sell. I think there are too many sellers now, or maybe an online selling format that appreciates sellers more.
