Sales almost nothing

[hitech-components]

Has anybody experienced a tremendous drop in sales over the last two months?"

I would expect a lot of views with rare collectibles as that is what eBay has always been known for. Computer products, especially heavy stuff like servers, I'm getting more buyers on FB and CL than eBay. It wasn't always that way, but certainly is now.

March was my best month ever.  This April is my worst month ever so far.  I don't know what is going on, I am just going to keep trucking.  (ps  @inhawaii people come on here looking for help and answers.  Instead they receive a lashing from you on ever single post.  Please take the time to help others rather than amuse yourself with your own comments.  Many of the sellers you are speaking to are running huge operations and have been on the site for 20 years.  It is extremely frustrating when sales trickle to a halt, while they remain strong and growing on other sites.)

March was a good month for me.  April is looking even better so far.

I'm not sure how that will help the OP but Is that the kind of helpful answer you were looking for?

I'm not Wilson but I will go ahead and say your answer was better than I expected, BUT, it could be construed as showing off or rubbing it in, thus potentially making the OP and others posters here feel bad.  

You might consider toning it down a lick or two. jmho

I know from previous posts you have been hitting those other markets with success. We don't have the exact same products but very similar.

I had some hired help here yesterday moving heavy items around that of which, many are not listed but I have them all in position at this time to make the same run you are having success with.

Wishing you continued success.

My sales are up 47.6% for the past 31 days.

Not bragging, showing off, rubbing it in, just the facts.

I've also had slow sales and sales drops before.

If you had more Wood Boss lunchboxes, your sales would be up even more.

 This answer was more on the heterogeneous side.

Thank you

No problem, man. We will keep working with you, lol.

BTW, my hats are still in nice shape, though summer is coming......

That's correct, people simply arent shopping on ebay anymore. My traffic on Mercari is 5X my traffic on ebay, and my inventory on ebay is twice that of my inventory on Mercari. ebay is being crushed by its competitors.

Besides scooping up all of ebay's buyers, Mercari is now taking their sellers as well. Mercari now charges sellers zero listing and transaction fees. The only fees you pay are when you withdraw funds, $2 for any amount of money.

My fees on ebay = 25% per sale on average

My fees on Mercari = $0

Shall I check with you before commenting to make sure it meets your approval?

Honestly, I am going to say this once with you, but you need to stop with your snide comments. Not sure that you are trying to pad your post count or what, but your comments do not help anyone. I've been on these boards for years and we keep hearing the same garbage from you over and over. Come on already.

The past 2 months, sales have dropped a lot for many sellers. It's a combo of the economy, what eBay has done with the promoted listings, changes to feedback making it buyer vs. seller again like it was 10 years ago,  and the constant changes to the site have hurt sellers. I even posted about promoted listing impressions dropping to move than half for many of us in a matter of a months time. I've been selling on here for over 20+ years and things have been getting worse of late.

The comment that set you off is valuable.  The clear message is that individual buyers will see ups and downs - that is the nature of eBay and online selling.  People should consider an alternate perspective - not just come to these boards for an echo chamber.
