Why does it seem eBay locks the door for 2-3 days weekends now??  Last weekend Fri-Sun = 0 sales.  This weekend = 1 sale on Fri.  Nothing on Sat/Sun.  Really getting to be a horrible trend!  5-6 straight weekends have been this awful.  Any reason for it?  At least the flea market treated me well.  eBay is making my decision really easy about limited my business here.  Although, how much more limited can it be?!   lol   Have a good night.     🙂

Personally, I don't put much stock in what those using a posting ID claim.   You're wasting your time replying to cool.

It’s the kick them while they’re down mentality that goes on here. I get that they don’t want a bunch of bad stuff being said about Ebay, but the truth does hurt sometimes. Sellers are dropping like flies, and we are all trying everything we can to stay afloat, but nothing seems to be working. Everyday I see more and more sellers having problems. Experienced sellers, good sellers that have been here forever and they’re leaving because Ebay is no longer viable. It is Ebay, they have messed up this site and it very sad, because it used to be great.

I've shown you now so many times that your items are visible to anyone looking but just in case you need more here you go: I randomly picked 5 of your items.

 

front engine mount 2014 honda civic    2 of 224

ignition coil set 2017 5.0l nissan      1 of 10

front right engine motor mount 2013 accura      2 of 182

hasport eg b-series bracket 2001 civic     1 of 1

raptor sr range extender antenna dji mavic    2 of 2

 

Congratulations and you are almost always on top of best match. I could have chose lowest first but you may have dropped in search placement so I wanted to show you the best results.

As I stated, I did do more specific key words from the titles. And those listings have been up for several weeks-and are sponsored. I made no changes before searching.

Thanks for the kind words! Thankfully, I have a lot of fun canvasing areas looking for new inventory. I think that helps. I know some people make pretty good money literally scanning bar codes on items in stores to find worthwhile things, and that's just so tedious to me. I certainly make a habit of researching a lot of what I buy, but it goes beyond just mindlessly scanning bar codes.

 

And yes, I take and edit all of my own photos. 

 

Thanks again for the kind words.

But this, again, is not the question was asked. You had claimed that you had "shown me in the past". That is what I disputed.

 

Although, despite your claims about our store on the forums here, it's nice that for once you admit that we are actually placed well as a seller, instead of saying the usual things like "buyers are choosing other sellers because eBay won't let us rank highly on best match since we sell over-saturated items" and that "competition is so high and we're just angry because our store is not competitive".

 

Your testing is some evidence that confirms that those things are in fact not accurate.

 

So for what it's worth, that is appreciated.

Another pathetic weekend has passed!  One sale!   😞   1 sale on Kijiji almost matched my last 9 days on eBay.  Freezing rain kept me from the flea market so, the weekend was 99.9% dismal.   It's pretty sad wken people have to be happy when the weekend ends.  lol   Good luck to us all.     🙂
