After months and months of stable sales, mine are trending lower too. I have to admit I havnt added any new listings for around 6 weeks, but even so it looks like a lean christmas period.

I have just had some auctions finish in the last few minutes on the non store account. Around ten out of thirty listings sold, but the competition and prices achieved where pretty dissapointing. This was for very good selling items that normally recieve animated bidding.

I suspect the problem is actually a lack of buyers in the market at the moment rather than technical problems with ebay, although those people switching to the new seller hub may be correct that the system is not working as it should. I havnt switched any accounts to the seller hub at this stage. I,m waiting for ebay to sort the glitches.

My guess is people are doing a lot of christmas shopping through alternate systems to ebay. With the uncertianty in the US elections and high utility costs, people are just being very  careful with their money at the moment. I put a couple of low bids on rare collectable books a few days ago. They should have been worth $500 - $600 each. One sold for $120, the other $170. Way under value and a reflection of how cautious buyers are at the moment.
