how come we don't have a monthly sales thread anymore?

Every Month, someone would start a monthly sales thread, how come we don't do this anymore?

Maybe because many sellers find it too depressing....sales are going down, not up so there is nothing worth reporting.

It lasted for a couple of years, until the forum switch-over to Lithium.

 

A lot of the regular posters - at least the ones who'd kick it off - don't seem to post as regularly as they used to. There was a thread posted to start it up again once they boards were back up and running, but it was on the Buying board so it kinda sank and it hasn't been seen or heard from since... 

 

Edit: BTW my sales have been alright - average or better, mostly - ratio of sales that are paid for the last week or so is dismal, though. Currently around 50% of 22 sales waiting for payment, but I know there's the voucher issue and a checkout glitch that could be contributing. >_>

Nah, just seemed enthusiasm for it had waned a bit.

 

For anyone who is interested, though, the general purpose was just to keep track of progress, and an informal way to act as a bit of motivation - i.e. to beat last months "score", rather than compete with other sellers with counts n all that. 

 

Start 'er up if you want, see what happens.

Nope - I just sent my big girls undies to the cleaners after starting this thread.
