It is so very disheartening, I think ebay is only part of the problem. Sales aren't happening anywhere. Just ask any of your local B&Ms.

I had a look at my visit versus buy stats and it is interesting that over the last 2 years the number of visitors to my ebay store has remained relatively static, some up and down days, but on the whole, not much change. However for the number of visits I am getting a lot less sales now. And the other thing is that I have nearly 100 more listing than I had a year ago.

I know I do have much more competition in my categories, not only from overseas but from here in Australia, that isn't helping, but can't blame anyone for that. I just have to market smarter, here on ebay as well as elsewhere.

Having said all that, this weekend was one of the worst in my 4 years of selling - and all the other worst days and weekends have been in the last month and a half.

Oh well, I'm going to do some craft, I don't often get time for that and a new toy has arrived for me to craft with.... LOL
