May Sales slump?

Has anyone noticed a significant slump in business on eBay Australia this month?


 


I've informally surveyed a few sellers I know and each one has noticed a reduction in business.

Another thing I have noticed is that just before my bill is due I always get enough sales to cover the expense.. 


 


So I am not making huge profit but I am earning enough for it to not cost me to have a store.

Well ref licualamapu comment:


I've noticed a change in my sales this calender year.The first couple of months were woeful with only 4-5 sales per week then all of a sudden I would make 15 sales in one day - unbelievable,then nothing for a few days.I've had 3 or 4 cycles like that this year.It's hard to


work out what's going on.Anyone have any ideas?


......


After having read through many discussion forums recently on both ebay.com and ebay.co.uk I suggest this ebay site may perhaps be suffering from same issues. Sellers are reporting events like' it's like my shop is being turned on and off at different times....' some sellers even state that they witness where their shop is turned 'on' for an hour in the day.


I ask, could this be possible? and if so what can ebay users do about it?

Have sold nothing so far this month, except one item (cancelled) to a buyer who did not pay.
