I get lots of views, very quite but then i will sell 2 or 3 items in the same day,I still sell more ebay but a lot of the views on here i presume must be bots.

Has gone so quiet I am hardly doing anything here since there's no incentive
When it goes quiet, list! Then, when the buyers return (when their lawns are mowed and the flowerbeds under control) there will be lots for them to buy.

Two sales on Ebid this week. One of which was something I first listed in 2018, lucky it was still where I'd left it!

When it goes quiet I also click on a few of my listings on GS. Since I replied in February with "a good start to the year with 4 sales in Jan." Well on the way to my target of 30+ by years end, with 25 sales and I'm even nudging closer to my target of passing 100 FB's.
@BordersBargains.
If I might say, when things are so quiet for you that is the time to try something new. Did you ever try viewing your listings on GS? Last time I clicked on a couple of your soaps you'd lost more visibility on there. A new Ebid seller from the USA had recently listed a big range of scented soaps.
One thing I learnt in my first year here (as I had sold nothing) is that inactivity doesn't promote sales.
If I might make a suggestion, your Art Deco Davidson black berry prunt dish. I found if I search for "Art Deco Glass" on GS it picked up more of my items if "Art Deco Glass" is near the front of the title. That's why I start all my ebid ads. with something along the lines of "Art Deco Davidson Blue Glass....". It might not be reliable as I only ever find about 10% of my listings are shown, but it seems to help to get them shown.

yeh I got to do some renaming now that many things have changed but things were so much better before this site made the GS changes
Surely Google Shopping changes were made by Google?
I was feeling dismal about June's sales until I looked back and saw that I sold exactly the same number of items last year... it's just the summer - people are on holiday or in the garden not buying collectables.

Since my post in early May I haven't sold a thing, literally. After the best start to any year on Ebid (25 sales up to April) I'm disappointed, especially as we've had about the most miserable summer weather I can remember as well. With the cold North wind blowing in from Scandinavia for weeks on end, there's just no excuse for people not to stay indoors and buy stuff!!
But as @Madelaine says, looking back to this time last year, I'd only sold 15 items in early July.
Usually the summer holiday months are my quiet period. Well it can't get any quieter!!
