My sales have been down for months now and not only the sales but also there's been a dramatic drop in the number of watchers on my items.

It feels like everything has just gone to sleep. I've lost interest in even checking my sales page as regularly as I used to because so little changes on it from one day to the next. My enthusiasm for selling has really waned and certainly its harder to find the considerable motivation or energy it takes to actually prepare listings.

Its hardly worth it any more !!

Its a relief to know its not just me although obviously I have sympathy for any other sellers in the same situation.

I don't know how much this is due to ebay's anti-seller policies and how much it can be blamed on a general decline in consumer confidence.

I am sure Tony Abbott, Joe Hockey and their cronies have something to do with it !!!!!
