What is with the slow business on eBay lately?
I am a part time seller on eBay. Just for a little extra spending cash. I have placed stuff for sale on eBay such as dvds and video games and nobody is even watching my items, much less a bid. I have 100% feedback and I have a good track record. My listing is simple and to the point and I don’t threaten potential bidders on the listing with words, such as "no new buyers" or threaten to cancel auctions as some sellers do. I start bidding low, and I have cheap shipping. So what is the deal.? It seems I have to lose money in order to make a sale or practically give away the item for free at .99 cents. I can not give people free merchandise. People would rather bid on other peoples auctions who charge a hefty amount, then bid on my items. I am tired of this and tired of paying listing fees to list items that never sell. eBay shouldn’t charge any fees, unless the item is sold and paid for first.
I think with the economy tanking, people in general have less spending money, or are spending less, in case they need it in the near future if they get laid off.
we are in an economic crisis right now.. millions of people dont have money/jobs… they are saving…

I too am a 100% seller and I agree if an item isn’t sold one ought not be charged.
Everyone is feeling the pinch lately and its hard to sale plus loads more are now selling (or trying to) on ebay so the buyer has greater choice of a bargain
