My sales are slow too, even I've dropped my prices. I had already closed my store in Feb due to extended travel, and was only just last week thinking about opening another one, but won't be now due to the price hike. I'll just try to mostly sell stuff under $20 so it's a 50 cent listing, and start to look around for another way to pay to live in Australia. I feel some of the fun has gone for me in ebay now.
