My sales have dropped lately, but it's been a slow drop over the last couple of weeks, all while I've listed new items. My thinking is that: a) we're in the traditional summer slowdown and people are seriously eager about getting out there and spending their money on services that weren't available to them during lockdown, b) the spending boost we got earlier this year from stimulus checks and tax refunds is over, c) a heck of a lot of people have lost jobs that aren't coming back any time soon, and d) savings vs. spending rates have been especially high these last few months as Americans anticipate the economy being on shaky ground for the foreseeable future.
Tanking sales are distressing, but the one thing a lot of people encourage doing is to use slow times to list more so that when buying ticks up again you'll have more available to sell.
