I think this new messaging system is the cause of my slow sales.

PLEASE CHANGE IT BACK EBAY!

I tried to order some Hawaiian Spam. But eBay sent me to messages. How do I pay? 🙄

The new message system causes your listings to to be hidden. You need to call customer support and ask them to "reset" your store. 😜

Is the new messaging system in the room with you?

@inhawaii What lucky suggests works most of the time. If not, throw on some Rucker to get that cha-ching rolling.

it's called quarterly update, and this happens most every one, especially the one close to xmas.

If so, the international sign is: 🖐 + ✊ with your thumb tucked inside your finger-fist.

There is no resetting anymore.

With the new and improved ebay, it is now just a 'switch'.

So far, I am impressed. 

Not with the "new messaging system" , ..................................................but with the fact that everyone keyed in on who was posting🤣 😜

Isn't this obvious ?!?!?!?

I had 'repeat buyers' yesterday so I can say at least they are still buying...so I know I have items that buyers want.

'New buyers' didn't happen yesterday.

So the system is so messed up for sure.

My week started out bad...had a few sales but not the ones I want...'freight forward' to Colombia and one to Kazakhstan.

So it's best not to wish for sales when they are to countries I usually don't mail to.

Posted a ton of new items...that didn't help this week.

I raised promoting all new items to 5%...that didn't help.

Algorithms are keeping new buyers away.

I think the sellers who promote to 12% are getting sales...

and are the ones killing sales for others. Doing EXACTLY what ebay wants, keep those PL elections high so they get every little cent from sellers as possible. That is why they killed Google submissions of listings and what PL is partly designed to do, look at your traffic and the part "Promoted Offsite" that number is ZERO unless you took the bait of "Priority" PL.

I’m a little confused, are people here being ironic? You need to reset your store for listings to show up? And doesn’t the standard advertising percentage only mean that your item is further down the search list?

No, they are being sarcastic. Original poster likes to joke around and the first post is not meant to be taken seriously.
