Cost of living, interest rates and eb sales
 

Evening all

How are the sales going at the moment? Mine have absolutely tanked this week. I have sold 1/4 of what I usually would

Have I just had an incredibly unlucky one off week that is an anomaly for usual or is something else happening?

Perhaps the back to back interest rate rise and the fear all over the media regarding cost of living has had an impact?

It would be great to hear the thoughts of others and how your recent sales have been holding up

Which category of sales?

Re: Cost of living, interest rates and eb sales
 

You are in UK,have you paid your heating bill?How much are you paying for gas and grocery?
are you renting or you own your own home?
THese are the reasons US buyers are not buying.

Sales have dropped considerably across all categories for me. Amazon number of sales have dropped significantly stateside. I would say a major slowdown is expected.

Thanks all for the replies. The cost of living is going crazy here.
I don't know if it's reassuring or not to hear its just my sales that are dropping off.
It definitely feels like there is something big coming in the economy....

inflation here in US is over 7%,beef,chicken,fish all gone up,worst is beef if you are a beef eater.
coffee,green beans,sugar,cheese,fuel ,everything.
if you need a plumber or electrician,better rob the bank first.
