Extremely low sales?

[sorrento.99]

Hi, are anyone else’s sales at rock bottom? Mine were fairly slow over the summer as expected but haven’t improved at all. Gone from 7/8 sales a day to literally one this week? Thanks

Ebay Customer Services told me that low sales may be due to the wrong time of year for selling! (Q4, Christmas, etc etc lol)

At a glance your Shop, fabric art, Feedback and prices all look good. A couple things might help increase sales:

One thing that stands out is that you had a huge 4-month break from listing new items. Only eBay knows how the algorithm works, but it seems to reward Sellers who list consistently. So instead of a 4-month break and then a flurry of new Items, it would be better to list one or two new items each week. 

eBay now give 24 photos per listing and sometimes you are using only one. Buyers scan and swipe so quickly that more photos give them a better chance to stop and consider buying.

Also I don't think the floor does your work justice (no matter how nice the floor). Your designer fabrics deserve a cleaner-looking background, and white would help people discern the fabric colours better. 

Maybe while things are slow, it's a good time to end a few things each day, add new photos, and then relist? This way you can test the consistency theory for yourself. Good luck with your work going into Q4 😉

Yep same here, normally sell 30-40 items a day and have been for years and years, lucky to get 1 a day now absolutely dreadful

This week has been extremely slow. Hence why I am on this thread.

my sales have had a noticeable drop since midweek. I have found a couple of issues where my advert setting had been changed by eBay and that has caused me to lose £300 per day sales. Currently got eBay looking into it but it does feel like a sinking ship atm
