Does throttling happen to all sellers at some point and does it ever vanish once it does arrive?

Just a quick question....Is it inevitable for throttling to happen to all?

If the lights are off in your store does it bounce back ever? 

Thanks in advance 🙂

I follow a few of my main competitors. From time to time they sell items which are identical to mine for much higher prices. I have 100% feedback, 4.9 stars across the board and have had no problems with anyone. One of my oposition has fairly ordinary feedback and a fairly low care factor. There may only be four or five of this particular item on ebay at one time, so why would a buyer pay A LOT more for it from another seller if they could see mine ?  The only thing I can put it down to is visibility ( or invisibility ) .

 


That's happened a "few" times with some of my items where the buyer has bought from a seller that had the

 

same items as mine but at a higher cost,(some of those have even been marked as used where as mine

 

where/are new),Who knows.gif

 

One item that I had listed had a link to eBay's "best choice" that was actually dearer,(which just doesn't make

 

any sense except that they had sold more items then me and maybe that criteria was used),stubborn_smiley_by_mirz123-d4bt0te_zps12f1a5a3.gif

 

I'm debating what/how to list in the future as some sellers virtually give the items away and make very minimal

 

profit,(which to me is pointless as you may as well give them to the OP shops as it's less hassle).

It's still 100% public, so fair game, I say. 

 

I did have a quieter than usual day yesterday, though, so might be time to break out the whole aluminium suit... Smiley Tongue
