Guys is ebay dead for me only or everyone has no sales?
I know it is common text here but we have more than 16 900 listed products on ebay (uk, de, it, es, us, au etc), and we sell nearly 0. Today it is exactly 0 as of 1:23 pm.
Nearly all listings are promoted with use of all type of ads including offside paid ads.
January from the beginning is like graveyard for us..
What to do people?

Maybe do only half listings as promoted, those listings show as 'Sponsored' and personally I wouldn't buy from a sponsored listing, don't know how others shop but inevitably there is a premium to pay on those listings. Can always find the same product not sponsored for proper price without promotion premium attached.
Also you can use the eBay filters to see if anyone else has sold anything in your market ('sold/completed' listings), you can check with individual sellers or whole keyword sales of all sold of product type.

I was thinking about the same 😂 but our listings seem to be shown as promoted as well as non-promoted listings under search results.
However I am not sure how real these results are taking into account that, ebay is collecting a lot of information about me, so they are showing results tailored to specific buyer - in this case - me SELLER. Because I am very often looking at my own listings to check everything these are constantly shown to me. It sadly seems that only for me and not to other buyers unfortunately.
Anyone think the same?

We're all getting that effect seeing our own stuff, can only try private browser to see something different, but again if never used filters always worth a look. Filters are down left hand side on desktop version, a bit complicated to explain on app, but if you look at another sellers 'other items' the filters are down the left also and can nosey what they are selling. Could be interesting to see if they sell anything at the moment, filter 'sold/completed' listings on another seller 'other items' page. If others selling and you're not, time to worry.
