Has someone turned ebay off ?

Whats going on ...I was selling heaps over all 3 accounts and then about 2 weeks ago ALL accounts have seen 60 -80% drop in sales. I know ebay turns the lights on and off but I have never seen it soooo dark. 

 

Anyone else ???

too many glitches remain unfixed....check the boards for lots of disgruntled sellers

I was just wondering the same thing.

Had a great July, but big drop lately, especially this week since about Tuesday.

Yep - eBay is broken. Half the time it won't load pages amd is running like a snail. No wonder sales have halved since May grrrrrrrrrrr

Ebay is loading fine.   

 

I suggest you clear your cookies and cache if it's running slow for you

 

Or change browser if you're using IE especially

I agree, There is something seriously wrong with Ebay this weekend,

sales are dead, results on keyword searches are showing well below what was showing before.

I dont know if Ebay is targetting certain sellers.

This weekend, I had several different coupon codes as incentives to buy.

 

I did buy several expensive items that had been lurking on my watch page.

 

So eBay has been trying to lift the sales of not just the major retailers, but everyone, this weekend. If eBay is slowing despite discount blitzs then a rethink is needed.

 

If anyone else does the surveys, you'll know that eBay is concerned about things...whether they listen is another story.

 

 

No issues for me searching, etc. on a mobile. Safari or Chrome. It's usually the mobile sites that play up.

My stores have been a bit quiet this week, ( down 20% on average ) but I used 300 of the 1000 freebies that ebay offered on the non store account around ten days ago. Some listings where 3 day auction, some BIN. .

 

The results where huge. It felt like the ebay of old with multiple bids and BINS going off constantly. I had several days full time packing and even got behind with the packing at one stage. The BINs I listed are still trickling in with a few sales, although they have slowed right down now.

 

The items I listed where mainly unusual collectables and vintage car parts. It seems there is still quite a few buyers out there for the rare "one off" items that dont come up for sale very often, but they are getting fussier.

Nope..........only mine hahahhaha I am in a big black hole of no sales.

Its a rollercoaster, I dont like rollercoasters they make me sick.....swings and roundabouts do too.
