Sales stop again

Sales are off about 90%.  Sales stopped abruptly after Russia invaded Ukraine; I thought the sudden cessation of sales was a natural event, but this has happened several times over the past three years, partly due to covid ??????  lack of personnel? Off and on, up and down, but this is the worst.  Seems to have happened once the change was made to limit views to every 30 days.  Very strange.

Limit views to every 30 days?  What?

The change was that the view count shows human views (only) now... no bot views. My sales slowed before that change. 😐

Re: Sales stop again

Who knows what the answer is for the on/off sales. eBay began reducing my sales in 2015-2016; slowly at first until a few now and then. Listing/selling was fun for nearly 20 years; I do suspect it is due to the globalization of the world. Check out their ebay EU sites.

Re: Sales stop again

Unless you live in Ukraine or Russia, I doubt very much it has anything to do with people buying your coins. Counters have nothing to do with people buying your coins also. There are only so many people who collect and buy coins and there are thousands of people selling coins. Compare yours with your competition and make adjustments accordingly if you want more sales.

Re: Sales stop again

Not sure when ebay made changes to its search function, but of late I have been having trouble finding specific items through a general search, and need to drill down several layers before any items start showing up. 

 

Some buyers may give up when barely any results show in the initial search. 

 

As to number of views, several of my listings have zero views, while others have dozens. The ones with the high number of views are items in demand, the ones with zero are meh.
