How badly do sales drop on eBay after the holidays?

November 6th, 2012 Leave a comment Go to comments

I need to sell some stuff on ebay but i wont be able to until after the holidays. I’m assuming the buying percentage drops off after christmas eve. If so, when is a good month to start an ebay store?

Feb
people slow down with their buying in January, however, they do pick right back up in Feb. Plus, think about if you go ahead and put it up after the holidays, people like to buy next years xmas early because then its taken care of and its cheaper.

But Feb is when the buying goes up back to normal. 🙂

    Quite badly. You would be better off with ebid.net, as it is free to list and FVFs are much less.

    More data here.
