Default Slow sales this three days

Are there any events going on in Australia for the past three days? Sales pretty much came to a halt!

A lot of threads about "slow sales" do seem to pop up during sunny days. :D

Though it is not fact it makes a lot of sense that majority of people would rather be out the house.

As soon as it starts raining in Aus, let us know if sales increase

^^ The Op is talking about AUS :D

But yeah, seems like it has been slow here as well, and the weather has been hottest in a while this week. Bank holidays etc and most people are out. Just the norm I suppose. Would also depend on what you are selling I bet some ebay sellers have been inundated with order for Barbeques!

I'm in AU and the weather has been so good we went out and did buy a barbie!!!
Still nice today but did make a couple sales this afternoon on ebay after nothing much for last week, so maybe things are on the improve. Tuesday and Wednesday nights usually good as there is nothing much on tv.

Constant sales on amazon for the past 8+ months of 15k-25k a month, and ebay just a few k a month. Amazon is where I make most of my solid money, and ebay I sell stuff you can find, or random stuff. What category of stuff are you guys selling in? I dont want to know items, just category.

Not me, i mostly sell laptop and desktop computer parts on half my stealth account. I have had more orders for laptop parts. People are enjoying the outside world.
It want it back to normal, desktop parts bring in higher margins.

And this thread is PROOF POSITIVE that these things run in cycles. Some days are good, others are bad. It has always been that way. It will always BE that way.

No worries unless we start having a lot more bad days...
