Ebay Sales Completely Dead **November 2024** ‌

[theglo-68]

Hi

We have been selling on ebay for over 10 years. Sales have been down since start of 2024 but its completely dead. Like we look at our stats from July to September and sales figures are less that what we are paying ebay for Promoted listings etc.

Although we have moved our inventory to Amazon and tiktok but wondered what has actually happened to our Ebay. It used to be aweseome but we now cannot even afford to list.  Listings are sat there doing nothing even with promoted listings.

November has been our difficult month so far as with Zero sales i mean come on there got to be something causing this loss. Is it new so called AI.

Please share your findings.🤔🤔

I closed my shop at the end of October ended all my listings and took a break from this nightmare.

I came back 10 Jan as I have loads of stock still to shift, only listed winter stock a few things 37 items and was amazed I got 6 sales. I know I would not have gotten those if I had still got the shop as they were in the shop getting no views before I shut it. 

I did no promotions just listed and left them. When you click on see sellers other items it looks like a shop anyway. I know you get perks with the shop but if you are not selling enough to justify the cost its not worth it.

I wont leave listings just sitting and relisting every month anymore at the end of this month I will end them all and list another bundell of listings I am going to stick to a listing budget at least I made a profit this time worth having not like before with a shop and promo fees.

I thought I would miss the shop but not missed it at all infact it's a weight lifted if anything.

Ebay has had it time its no longer the ebay it once was  has not been for years. So I am not expecting anything to change for the better in the future either.

We all know what greed does 😉 it's made it impossible for sellers to make a profit anymore.

Yep complete dead due to new payment system etc etc

Believe me I think about the same.

17,266 listings - in various categories -
100% positive feedback

TOP seller ratings for each category: 5 5 5 and 5

60 DAY RETURNS - free returns on most items

FREE next day delivery on hundreds items and 2-3 free delivery on the rest.

Nearly all items PROMOTED

Constantly running SALES and DISCOUNTS

Sales for last few days - 8 items sold, 2 items sold - 11 items sold.....

REALLY? I would sell more on the street by my house!

RIP

This new payment system is not helping anyone but ebay

Absolutely dead, not even views on some products! Now EBay are charging buying costs for item verification which will certainly put off future customers.

Vinted is certainly much busier but is not geared up for shops.

Where is everyone going to market their shops ? Any idea?

"Where is everyone going to market their shops ? Any idea?" - Here's an idea.  With hundreds of new items in various sizes and using stock photographs; just correctly register and problem solved.

I wrote this post in November 2024, things were bad then, since then ebay seems to have damaged itself by making another stream of random changes not thought out.

Tis the end i tell ya all.............
