yes. I lowered prices and shipping fees, an still very slow. I won't give up completely until the end of the year though.

Searching the forums on 'low sales' gives 7000 results.

Yep.
Aggravated enough to end all my auctions and quit selling on this platform.
What's the difference between taking the time and effort to list auctions and making no money, or not wasting that time and effort and making no money?
So we decided to spend that time and effort making money elsewhere.
eBay made that decision easy.

I passed Aggravated many miles ago. You'll soon come up on Resigned To... exit there. Much smoother ride. 👍

The fed raised interest rates again today. If you have any sales at all you should be pleased. I'm seeing more and more rip off artists at my brick and mortar store, scammers, fakers, and shoplifters. My sales are off dramatically from 2 years ago, but I am not surprised.

Sometimes you have to just look at the glass as half full.
And buy the barrel.

When sales are bad you have to get creative. Try deleting your auctions and “sell similar” then they will come up in the search as new items. I find that has helped. Additionally have a sale, send out coupons to old customers.
since I am likely much older than most off you let me tell you in the mid 70’s and we bought a house. The going interest rate was 10% for a mortgage. The economy is going to be fluctuating always, so be flexible.

it's part of business. however just be prepared and try to stay active. "there is always something to do."

There are no guarantees or consistencies with selling online.

Search issues, organic issues, promotion issues, checkout issues, offer issues and it just goes on and on all the issues with the site right now. I went from $800-$1200 days down to lucky if I get $600. Server failures, system errors, sorry try again later are a constant with the website.

What is resigned a website?

Pretty sure the original poster came here looking for answers or clues as to why things suddenly changed.
Pretty sure he doesn't appreciate the gaslighting.
Pretty sure this forum would be better if people answered the questions raised with possible reasons for issues, and not the EXACT SAME cis boom bah performance from the EXACT SAME posters every time someone expresses an issue or concern.
Pretty sure.
Pretty sure that when consistent sellers know the rhythm of their normal sales flow, feel a disturbance in the force and find confirmation in the analysis of not only their sales, but also impressions and page views, there is indeed something amiss. It is no secret that internal changes occur within this company. It stands to reason that some of those changes or adjustments would have results and consequences.
Pretty sure the original poster will find no answers or remedy. Possibly things will return to normal soon... perhaps not.
