What the heck is going on?

[mike_jayroe]

Have been having very few sales in May and June. Last one was June 26th.  Now I have had five orders in two days. Is my luck changing?

Did some mysterious person lift the curse they put on me?

Do you see a big spike in your Impressions, on the Traffic page?   

[mike_jayroe]

yes I do. I was really getting discouraged. Maybe things will keep going this way for a while.

Are those my only 2 options,

luck changing or curse lifted?     😉

You must have done good things in your life.  Congrats on your sales.  Please pass on the Good luck!  😋

The curse will back tomorrow, it's a temporary curse lift.

I hope this continues for you but, unfortunately, I cannot say I feel positive about it. 😞  I've seen it happen too many times.  It is part of eBay's rotation.  It was your turn to have the light shining on your items.  Soon, it will be someone else's turn.  A sudden surge, in my experience, never lasts more than a very short time.  I hope I am completely wrong!   🙂   Best of luck to you.

I'm going with the 'eenie meenie miney mo' option.  Just his turn in the grand scheme.

They need to keep you interested in the game, otherwise you'd take the ball and go home.

True it does rotate every 30 days, my impression went up about 25%. It also depends on the percentage level your promotion level.

One good thing I do in life is donate blood on a regular basis. On June 25th, I donated pint number 168. That's 21 gallons since 1973. 

Or maybe it was getting my two golden retrievers a hairscut for the summer time.

If I can figure it out,  i will let everyone else know.

It must be because you were throttled. And then unthrottled. Because throttling is real. (cue eBay apologist propaganda propagator gang to rush to eBay's defense now, defcon 4!)

It is called the throttling
