| yotano211 | 04-27-2013 06:28 PM | I have that problem too. I think next week I might just cut back on sales and wait a few weeks. |
| imjustme | 04-28-2013 01:53 PM | I just noticed, eBay is running a special of 100,000 free auction listings from April 20 - April 29, that's likely the reason why sales are slow. eBay is basically swamped with that huge amount of listings. |
I already used up my 100,000! lol |
| exxomscp | 04-28-2013 05:04 PM | Same, things are sort of slow and sluggish, but we're getting by little by little..
I've also had an extreme amount of cancellations, 3 in one week. |

:suspicious: |
| bowlfan912 | 04-29-2013 06:46 PM | i think i found my niche with sportscards but im still averaging 1-4 non payers out of 50 items. |
| SaiJin | 04-29-2013 10:29 PM | Well this month has been hell. 20% of sales only and triple the amount of buyers remorse who makes excuses trying to blame me instead.
I'm starting to feel really angry . |
| 100HRWEEK | 04-30-2013 12:02 AM | Let's recap April:
1. March was soft, had left over inventory for April which should had been all sold in March.
2. Started April with 7 day Suspension (One Week Gone)
3. Remaining 3 weeks, were super slow
4. Sold 2-3 big items (Decent Profit to Keep vs the Burn & Churn $1 joke profits)
5. All said big item buyers want the items returned.
6. Got a few RED Negative feedback from the (Burn & Churn $1 profit items).
7. Got a 30 day suspension, pushing all the way to May
8. Pending open cases as usual
9. Can't add in any new inventory
10. Loved April |
| Dunersdunes | 04-30-2013 12:09 AM | Im always same 2,500 weekly. Thats what i list. Spend 1 day a week on ebay. 1 Day auctions or buy it now. Both always end in 24 hours or less selling about 23 to 26 of the same thing. I could list more and more but like 6 days off to spend with my son. Being single dad of 3 year old eats up time. Lol
Next month i will double up in sales
Theres a few needy families i draw from a hat, through "Helping Hands" with needy children and will help and donate near 5,000 for the month buying their food and toys and such for their kids. I do that 2 times a year. Thats when i really put in a few extra days to help out
Good luck to everyone and hope for those of you struggling things turn around 10 fold for you
Thanks |

I'm starting to feel really angry . | I usually end the month without 2-4% that are nonpaying buyers. This month looks like closer to 15%. I still have some open cases for nonpayment and other that havent opened yet but it might be close to 15% nonpaying this month. wow, I remember, last year wasnt this bad and I was selling the same things from last year. |
| O.Michaels | 04-30-2013 06:08 AM | wow, amazing.
...pretty good, not to mention the fact that my PayPal got limited! |

Nice to see happy faces - 1 time for needy families with children - another time for the local shelter for adults - 3rd time for a very sick ward of a children's hospital. |
| Dunersdunes | 04-30-2013 10:45 AM | Cool deal rsot. Good to hear. Great to see others willing to help out. Keep up the great work. |
