Sales have been awful in 2019 and only seem to be gettin worse. When I do searches on my listings rarely do they even come up. I've run sales, marked things down and offered buy it now and nothing seems to help.

A year ago I went to a larger store and have worked my fanny off listing and I'm really beginning to wonder WHATS THE USE! If I offer free shipping and free returns I have to raise my prices so that seems pointless.

Guess im going to have to weigh my options.Thanks for letting me blow off steam.

Can you give us a couple examples of item numbers and the search criteria for which they do not even come up?

Do some rewriting. Rewrite the titles on some and eliminate the words "vintage" "retro" "vintage rare". People don't actually search for those words (for the most part). Start the title with words that people may search. PYREX, pattern names (research is your friend). Someone once posted "The first four words in the title make or break a click through".

As an aside, I was rewriting some titles the other day and sold 2 of those items within 15 minutes. I can't hurt, right?
