what's wrong with my account...

I would like to hear other people's opinions on how to improve my store. I sell Soviet antiques, many people from abroad collect such things!!
I would like to know what kind of ad would you be happy to see in America. For example, when you sell in Ukraine, you can write just two words and a couple of photos. This will be enough. And here, it seems, what to do a detailed ad)) I would like to know what else can be added to the listings!!!! ðŸ˜•

I think they look good. Some pics could be brightened up a bit. If I can't get a good pic I brighten it up just a bit (and crop) on the computer. One thing I would say is not everything has to be advertised as vintage. It's not a key search word. Collectors know they are and don't do their searches for "vintage". Also the AI descriptions can come off as... well, it's AI. It just sounds like a computer-generated TV commercial. It tries too hard. Just write a good description mainly focusing on the condition. Good luck~

Nothing is wrong with your account, and your listings look nice.  Plus, you offer paid returns.

 

My daughter-in-law is from Ukraine (she arrived here to work after the war started) and she receives packages from her family.   Many of the packages unfortunately never arrive, or they arrive after many weeks, sometimes in bad condition.

 

I think that a lot of American buyers see "Ukraine" and they think of the war, and then they decide to not risk spending their money.   

 

For example, this is what I see ("Shipping:") for your chess set:

And when I click "see details," I see this (many warnings):

Your listings look good.  You need to add many more items to be a viable seller on ebay.  Your biggest problem is your in the Ukraine.   Because of the war most buyers are afraid to make a purchase.
