No Sales ...

[ms_aussie]

I have recorded no sales since the 25th September. Is anyone else experiencing low sales volume?

Last weekend sales were great this weekend ... dead 😞

I just added a link in one of my listings (the watch). It seems to be working ok on firefox.

I made the link here

http://www.isdntek.com/tagbot/qlink.htm

and copy pasted it into the listing

I added another couple of listings today.

I'll just wait and see whether there's many clicks or watchers (apart from ninjas and cats) or enquiries before I do any more.

Thank you very much

Mmmm ... thats a lot of instructions on that page to make a link 

I am sometimes not very good at following instructions

so I might try when its not happy hour

Can others even see the number of watchers ?

Or is only the seller than can see the number of watchers ?

I can see how many views a listing has had, but can't see the number of watchers anywhere.

There's a lot of stuff on the page but just follow your nose down the left hand side of the page and it's easy

1. enter the URL of your feedback page

http://feedback.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=thecatspjs&ftab=FeedbackAsSeller

2. enter the clickable text you want to appear on the listing

3. tick the button next to the link colour you want to use. I used "Standard Link color"

4. preview

5. copy and paste the html into your listing

i can't seem to get it right ATM

I tend to have big multiples of everything I sell, so easy to spread the love around.... I list here on ebay, on my website, QS and Etsy (taking over the world one website at a time...mwahahahahahaaaa).

I've been on QS on and off for years. If it's any indication, I've sold 4 items this year. Yep, 4. Every now and then I get sick of watching the tumbleweeds on QS and pull everything out. Then I go...oh well, this may be the year they pick up and get customers and slowly build the list up again. 

So yep - has some great features but currently serious lack of buyers (for what I sell anyway). Certainly worth a try but at this point I wouldn't use it as my only basket. 

On a side note - I'd be interested to see how your Christmas lego stuff goes there Bricks. A few years ago I purchased lego advent calendars through QS and some of those auctions were rocking!

In reply to all chatting about QS.... Everyone is getting off ms_aussie's original subject.

Is ANYONE actually selling stuff on eBay these past weeks ???

I have a couple of sites on ebay (one a store) and on both the sales are atrocious (practically non existant)

I know it is the end of the month right now, but this has been for ALL of September, I'm talking about.

I'm not really interested in QS.

Most people I have canvassed have not even heard of it, so I'm not even going to waste my time listing there.

I would like to hear from other eBayers out there, and their insight into just what is happening with their selling on eBay..

Obviously buyer confidence in eBay is shattered at the moment (Would have nothing to do with the upcoming changes which impact sellers).

I have been getting heaps of views on my best selling item, but no takers lately.

It is heartbreaking after years of hard work...... eBay should really lift their game.

Yes.

Things slowed down a little bit a couple of weeks ago, but this last week has been quite busy and brought me back up to my normal average. (Not a high-volume seller, averaging 300 sales a month).
