I run a store with over 415 listings, and in the last 90 days i have only made 17 sales. everyday is very slow, i never get messages about my items, never recieve offers (even lowballs) and this is nothing new to me, i have experienced a huge decline over the last few years. i used to do well on here, now i struggle to make enough to keep myself afloat... ebay is my main source of income other than govrenment disability assistance... i physically cannot work a job. i just dont understand what went wrong with ebay. i just dont understand how you guys do it.

My sales are nonexistent as well. But I have dropped any shipping to the US. But one word comes to mind, uncertainty. Without a stable consistent set of parameters buyers will look to other platforms for there purchases. And that includes flea markets, antique malls and local marketplaces. Myself, I use marketplace and sell a lot of stuff.

For myself sales on eBay started the great decline about 10 years ago and it has been a continual downhill slide ever since...>>>and now eBay is no longer a viable selling site for me...I no longer ship to the USA but even prior to the Tariffs, my eBay sales to the USA were but a scant few, so the reality is that although my refusal to ship to the USA may have cut out any potential sales there, my hopes for additional Canadian interest to bring forth a few sales here has not materialized; at least not here on eBay. My other selling site has been doing okay in that regard(shipping within Canada only), so my focus has been to maintain listings on that site.
My presence here on eBay will be minimal. I also sell on FB Marketplace, but that's for items that I don't list on eBay or my other selling site.

It's been tough in general. With the Oompa Loompa, things just got worse.
