SLOW TO NO SALES THIS WEEK (APRIL 18-24 2021). WHATS HAPPENING EBAY?

[harmonyfinds]

Anyone else having slow or no sales this week? I have almost 300 listings and zilch. BTW: I list Daily, Almost Everything is on Sale and/or Best Offer-(though I haven't gotten any), and EVERYTHING is Promoted. Beginning of April was good.. now just one sale in past 5 days. I appreciate EB but when it declines it really goes deafly silent, like nothing. I usually see this whenever they are rolling out anything new, so I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing this to this extreme? Thanks,

zero sales  in the last 3 days. I’m tired of talking to CS and  getting nowhere.

I sell seed.  This time last year, I did 1750 in sales for the month of April.  This year I did about 200.  This is SEED folks, it's APRIL.  There is something really not right, and I understand the panic buying of last spring, but this is a drop of 90% for me.

Same thing here. We have put on many promotions, and nothing happing.

it turns out interestingly, we all say here that we have bad sales. And ebay, meanwhile, declares its success and experienced growth in many billions. So who lost and who won?))

I have the same thing happening.  Several days with no sales and I've always had at least 1 every day, now nothing.  What the heck is going on????

[serenitystrawsnstuff]

Can someone tell me what the "switch" was??  Last thing I heard about was the payment thing.  I miss PayPal.

Bonjour @harmonyfinds @serenitystrawsnstuff  ,

Le nouveau système de paiement imposé par ebay aux vendeurs a atteint l'Europe ,

Des milliers de vendeurs quittent ebay partout en Europe ,

Plus de frais et moins de liberté pour nos paiements est inacceptable  , 

Le pire est a venir  pour le 28/05 et les jours suivants , 

 ebay  a pas le monopole des ventes ,

Il existe d'autres plateformes internationales  avec moins de frais et de restrictions ,

Chaque vendeur perdu c'est aussi un acheteur de moins ,

A un moment resté sur ebay c'est faire faillite !!

Five days of stock prices is the way you evaluate a company? I hope you are staying out of the stock market for your own sake... Consider a bigger picture...

In the US, Managed Payments has not increased fees. The total fees are almost identical. It takes the same amount of time for your funds to be available in your bank account as it took to transfer your funds from PayPal to your bank account. The difference is that you can't access the funds until they are in your bank. A loss of freedom? Maybe a small loss...

eBay has 20 million active sellers and 110 million active buyers. There are over 2 billion sales a day. So it seems like your prediction of immediate bankruptcy is a bit of a stretch.

Most marketplace platforms use the same or a similar payment processor to eBay's Managed Payments so you won't find much difference elsewhere. But good luck to you, wherever you end up going.

And where are the culling the herd aficionados exclaiming and proclaiming, "More buyers for me!"?

The payments service providers are EU now.

Not good?

Same here. I called them 3 times and they said they are aware of the issue and trying to fix it. They said that last week. Until now, no change. The last two weekends and this weekend have been the worst ever! No sales just a random here and there small ones. 3 weeks in a row now. Wow!

[gracedeals19]

So how and where are they getting their billions if we resellers are having such slow to no sales the last few weeks?
