Question about listing and selling

Hi, I am thinking of adding a subtitle to my listing. It says (+$1.50) but I'm not sure how this fee is applied. Is it applied to every single sale I get (e.g. deducting $1.50 from every sale), or is it only a one-time charge for listing the item? Th...

WATCHERS?

I was making a sale every day, sometimes within minutes of listing. Very recently sales have slowed down to one every few days- around the same time I noticed that the "Watchers" are no longer showing up. I am seeing publicly that watchers are showin...
