This is from a different thread but I just saw it and feel it may be relevant to you.

 

I'm still keeping one store stocked up pretty well and ticking over. What I have noticed is that ebay is really hitting accounts that dont have a lot of activity. ( more than in the past ) If you are not constantly listing, revising and selling, your items drop completely from searches pretty quickly at the moment. 

The economy is definately affecting sales, but there is still buyers out there for the right stuff.

 

 


Really you are quoting an unattributed source,  for information they have put on a forum,  thats really not a valid comment.


True, it is from a forum member and is anecdotal. But it is from a fairly long term, big seller so at least worth considering.

Most comments on this forum are personal opinions or about personal experiences. Most could not quote the exact research figures overall.

 

For example, curraone wrote about postage costs:

 I know you're allowed to add a little extra for packing etc, but in my experience buyers get quite narky if too much is added on.  

 

That's anecdotal too but I'd say it is spot on.
