Summer is typically slower.  Sales generally start picking up when it is back to school time through the holidays.

Sell better stuff and/or lower the price.

You can list more things to sell and you might want to have a sale to try to increase your sales.

It is not unusual for sales to be slow and sporadic. Also, many people/families take vacations during the summer so they're not necessarily looking to shop while they are on vacation. They just want to relax and enjoy some anticipated quality fun time with loved ones.

In the meantime, try to learn what items are fast sellers and try to add more of these items to your listings.

You barely have enough listings that is one reason for slow sales. You want more sales you need to find a niche of a fast selling product and have a lot more listed. Only list items in demand.

@savemart-118   Do you have a Payoneer account?

[savemart-118]

yes, I have

Don't sell stuff that you can buy at a supermarket.  Take pictures of the actual product you are shipping.  Stock pictures turn some buyers away.

Have you shopped your prices?  i.e. looked to see what others are selling that same product for?

On your devilled paste........you are at $25/others are selling below $10......

@savemart-118   Okay good, here's the next step for you:

SOLD SEARCH

You are asking the right question when it comes to listing your items for sale.  Sellers need to research what things actually sold for as a guideline for how they price their items.  You can do that on eBay by typing the name of the item in the Search window then clicking search.

The list that is returned will be current listings and what people are asking for their items.  Next, look over in the left gutter and scroll down to the Sold filter box and check it.  The list of items from search will now update to what they actually sold for in the last 90 days.  You will notice the prices are green and any with a strike through line means they were sold as the result of a Best Offer.  In this case the actual selling price is unknown but lower than the displayed price.

When it comes to collectibles keep in mind that the sold search is just a guideline and you should not be afraid to price your item higher if you consider your item is in better condition than the ones you see on the list.

Your prices are too high for the American market. What makes your product worth the price you are asking?

 You have done so much. Thanks for everything.

I understand the problem with my listings. Thanks for your support.
