I remember the good old days when I used to have a few sales every weekend on ebay. I was so excited to check my sold area and find something had sold. These days, sales are much slower (despite selling popular items) and these last few months, sales have been incredibly dire - 1 sale every 3 days if I'm lucky and in the last fortnight I've not had one sale!! Many listings have almost been on the site for 30 days and still have 0 views. Watchers are almost non existent and gone are the days where you could have 100+ views in a month, now I'm lucky to get over 10 views during the whole listing duration. I even checked out my competitors and typed in to search what I usually sell and the listings are way down by over 25%.
And then the new layout today. It is bloody awful. Too big on my screen so I have to do scrolling each way just to see everything and it doesn't show how many sold items you have - even though that's easy for me as it's been 0 for so long...too long in fact.
Oddly enough it can't be the weather as about 2 weeks ago when my sales fell off a cliff, I decided to list some items on ebid and they have had a lot more views than the same items had on ebay (there is a first for everything) and I've even had 1 sale! OK nothing to get too excited about, BUT in that time nothing has sold on ebay so something is definitely wrong with ebay.
How about you. Are you finding ebay dead at the moment?
