Always for me this time of year sales seem to come to a screeching halt. And for whatever reason I seem to get more buyers pulling scams and various issues than the rest of the year.
Hope Ya'll are doing better than me right now.
The complete step-by-step guide to get back to selling today!
Yes, the prices had come down for me. Sometimes I get my items sold at 50 bucks a pop, now I have to put a 20 dollar minimum bid just to make sure it goes above 20 and sometimes that doesn't get sold. It started a couple of days ago, so in guessing its April. In march everything was kicking off.

Yep my clothing sales have bottomed out, its that in between period, nobody is still buying winter clothes but they aren't ready to start with spring stuff yet either. I think next year I may just make end of March/first of April an ebay vacation .
Antiques and collectibles are a tad bit slower but the retail arbitrage items are flying off the shelves faster then I can list them.
Usually dont do many BIN unless I can re stock quickly and the items I have been buying that are new are selling fast as I put them on.
This is why it is important to spread your items you have for sale out over a variety of categories. When one is slow the other will pick up the slack.
I was able to purchase an entire pallet of items from a local retailer before it even hit the shelves by talking to the store manager.
I have listed these items on 15 different accounts and sold one on each account and many on several accounts.
Another advantage of having multiple accounts.

Preaching on. Just about everything I have for sale has bottom out. I know March/April/May is usually slow. But I have to agree. Time to just chalk up vacation time early April next year.

Yep Vogeltron, have had more returns the last few days than I have had for months. Sales were gangbusters and seems to be a bit slower. This weekend will tell the story I think because usually Mondays are my busiest shipping day. I Have to be grateful for the great sales I have had the last 6 months.

I just wrote on the 2015 Calendar for the second week of April. VACATION.
Everything is crazy slow.
Haven't been to San Diego in years. Might look into that next April.
I just added an exclamation mark to my Vacation Calender for 2015. Maybe not for everyone but it looks like for me the first two weeks of April are the time to get away.
Anyone got April Woes sales wise?
