Sales dead and views high march 2025

[joyskitschkreations]

I know this is reoccurring topic, but something weird happened.

2 weeks ago my sales plummeted - but my views became erratic, showing higher views then the run up to christmas/valentines (Im a card company) all my sales at the moment are coming through repeat buyers.

Ive tried a sale, promoting more listings, taking down slow listings, I consistently list new listings and now I am as a loss what to try next.

My feedback is 100% and Im a top seller, the only things that changed 2 weeks ago is one return (customer accidentally ordered too many) this return is still open and processing. And ebay asked for my NI number which I gave them.

Anyone else having and similar trend? I Attached my views performance so you can see what i mean by erratic views.

I know slow periods happen, but its the run up to mothers day and Ive sold more mothers day cards on my independent unadvertised website then the ebay marketplace - which makes zero sense to me.

Any advice appreciated

We had a busuy period beginning of march then it died but we checked our stats and traffic was higher but with dead sales. Something very odd with ebay sales I must admit. Mind you our amazon store is dead at present. But I'm surprised with the state of the economy.

I can report similar, the only thing different for me too is an open return. A click and collect that the customer failed to pick up, but it seems to be lost on the return and has been sat open (I have called eBay about it).

I ran a 3 day flash sale, the first day was good, 2nd and 3rd day not good. The weird thing was it ended at midnight last night and since then it's been sale after sale, (and overnight sales are quite rare for me now). Makes no sense!
