Sales during these times.
 

Mine are up 25-30% since shelter in place has started. Comments about yours?

Pretty sure the OP that is located in the US, isn't trolling around the UK ebay section, looking to see if someone else has posted about this. I've never even clicked the international section once, in the decade I've been on this site. Call me crazy tho.

My business is actually not bad as I expected. I don’t know why because if people aren’t making money because they’re at home they shouldn’t be spending money.

Just going to roll with it, and invest a ton of my profits in the stock market.

I expected mine to be worse due to the virus. BUT, without the virus, they should be way better than even normal around this point. So I'm definitely way down. My stuff is for people with somewhat disposable income tho.

You must be selling necessities and not entertainment splurging stuff I'd assume.

Re: Sales during these times.
 

Yeah same here. In way, I think a lot of sellers based online are thriving in these conditions. Maybe not thriving per say, but definitely compared to brick and motors without any income.

People with money, want to spend it. Weather its smart to or not with the uncertainty... lot of places are closed now, forced to by the government as I imagine you know. Online shopping is the only way for most things not of necessity like food. I'm getting messages daily asking if my company is shipping due to the virus.

Plus about 20-30% of my money is international buyers. So that helps a little. People are still buying internationally, for me at least.

The brick and motor companies, they're the ones f*cked.

Patiently waiting on the 2000 s&p500 level. If it holds, may pick up some there. If it folds, look out wayyyy below.

I’m waiting for $180 on spy as a long, long term investment. I might buy at $200 though. If it doesn’t hit there are plenty of other companies I’m buying now.

Our market hasn’t dropped this much or this fast since the Great Depression. We’re truly, truly in unprecedented times.

Nice move - just have to find the lowest point and time it right...hopefully

People in their homes, they prefer to purchase online instead of taking a risk getting infected with the covid19.

No mine is not needed items but collectible items.

YOUNG folks staying home alone prefer to vape,while older folks may turn to smoking cigarette.

I have had three abnormally slow days. One being last night, last Friday and super Tuesday. Why? Super Tuesday makes sense. The other two days, I really have no idea why.

Re: Sales during these times.
 

yet another one of your irrelevant posts, is irrelevant.

Re: Sales during these times.
 

Not trying to time it, thats impossible. Just buying and averaging down as certain companies go down more and more. Not worried.

Re: Sales during these times.
 

Right on - cost averaging is a decent premise for the large established companies

my 31 days are now down 20% from previous. Should have been my best month. Ah well. Super glad I took out a loan a week before all this **** really hit the fan.
