hi everyone
has anybody having problems with how slow sales have been on ebay. Or am i the only one not making many sales.Ebay for me has come to a near dead stop putting listings on auction and only to see them close,only see a couple of wacthes and that;s it,so is eveyone haveing the same problem. I run a on-line auction aswell as a store and both are only seeing small sales, i don't believe i am to expensive in what i sell as i think i am pretty fair on price. Any info would be grateful.

Darryl, I don't think you are alone. People are starting to leave eBay and find other sources to sell their products. I think this will be the trend for quite sometime now. Hopefully this will open their eyes and they will start to treat their sellers with a little more respect. Right now eBay is all about looking after it's buyers and screw the sellers. I guess they forget who got them to the top! So sad!!

EBay buyer & seller boycott set to start Monday
Ebay sellers plan a weeklong strike to protest changes to the site's
fee, search and feedback policies.

This strike will do nothing but hinder ebay slightly. The same sellers will be back on ebay within a week. So ebay will do nothing. Sellers need to run a month long or multi month boycott campaign to really affect ebays bottom line.

I agree Jimmy, with you, if 70% of sellers boycotted ebay for 1 month, they would use a hell of alot of money...
