It's not you, eBay in general have lost thousands of customers both buyers and sellers due to other market places which I wont name but you will know who I mean, I personally have gone from 3-4k month to 1k month if im lucky. 

start looking at other selling platforms, unless eBay make radical changes and get buyers / sellers back then its going down the pan.

Yes it's down although it looks like you are still having a sale or two each day. I've had a few days in August and September with no sales at all ( which used to be rare).  It's also the middle of the month and it has been more noticeable in the past few years that buyers are waiting for each months pay day.

We are coming up to the busiest time of year which is the most important for business sellers so hang on in there.

The listing for 136091826981 has great photos! Do you know eBay weights the first four words of your title, so maybe good to move artist's name forward?

 

On the other hand, Justin Resells made me laugh this week: The key to selling is having things people want to buy! Even with terrible photos and a poor title, things will sell.

Ebay have massively irritated buyers this year (with the buyer tax and simple delivery on private seller items) to push them to try other places.

 

Ebay's changes pushed me over the edge to joining another platform where I have now done plenty of buying and selling transactions and honestly it's made me reassess what I consider a reasonable price for the clothing and pottery you are selling.

 

So a combination of buyers transitioning away from ebay and getting familiar with lower prices.

 

It's not going to get better unless ebay can resolve their fundamental misjudgements.

 

They are killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.

I was really worried about getting my head around SD but I should have been more worried about lack of  sales.

 

Took a break for 2 months.  Started listing again about 2 weeks ago.  But there has been nothing - few viewers even fewer watchers.  I used to sell about 1 - 2 things a week - sometimes with nothing for a week but then 1 - 2 things.  When eBay was using Voyager I used to sell about 3-4 things a day.

 

Buyers preferred it when sellers paid the fees.  Sellers preferred it when they had a bit of control on their postage options.  Losing buyers and sellers along the way cos they want stability and reliability - not incessant changes all the flipping time.  Just saying!
