Sells still WAY down for the month of April

[kat8112]

 Any other sellers still experiencing this??

Yes. Being pushed out if business by unfair business practices.

From unfair shipping competitions with china to ads being run along my ads pages.

I'll probly get finished off for speaking out because I don't use multiple accounts. This is it.

About 6-8 months ago things turned south. Recently all the way to hades.

Occasionally I wonder if eBay's CEO is a sabotager out to destroy what was once known for unique no where else items but only to force it to be another arm of Foreign interest like that place that's starts with an A.

It's really sad to watch and needless to say, hurtful to my livelihood.

I literally know of hundreds of good sellers, with great products, good prices with excellent service who've been around years in eBay hurting. This is wide spread.

A word to ebay.

The shift you are making is not a good one. You are hurting the " inventory". The inventory is US, the sellers. You are not A. A does not have the diversity of unique and original items mixed with new stuff like ebay does.

The only way to compete with A is to show off your uniqueness better than the competition. Not by trying to emulate it. Emulating won't work because by doing so you kill off what was ebay in the first place.

Sorry for the rambling. I'll go back in hiding now.

Good luck!

How many more sellers from foreign entities are included in you're " assumption"?

Thanks for the feedback.  I hope I am wrong.  

Still slow but for the week I have sold 5 small ticket items for around $160-170 .  Improvement but after 

Item cost...Shipping supplies...shipping...Ebay fees...Ebay store fee... Paypal fees....You know where that leaves the bottom line.

My friend who has a store like mine, has noticed a slight increase to his slump as well.  Same slump as me and almost the same level of improvement.

Hope some slight imprvement comes your way.

Its not great but it is a light and some hope.

I actually sold about 6 items this weekend, 4 of them were the same item that I have multiples of. Really weird since I have hundreds of items.
