Yes, I initially thought it was the school half term holidays, but then realised its probably down to the Ukraine war & March energy price planned increases. I’m guessing consumers are feeling pretty worried about the situation and how this will impact their disposable income.

We have been very quiet for 2 months now, ebay is non existent. I’m thinking it could be due to all the rises in gas, electric etc. Our office electric has risen 130% so maybe other people are feeling the squeeze to!

This is true across the board, if you tracked amazon overall sales you will notice a drop in almost every niche, some more than others.
I’m waiting for that person who will post on here saying their overall sales is up by 300%, just eye roll and ignore.
Things will improve, use the time to improve your keywords and then maybe catch up on that Netflix series.

When you get quieter days it’s natural to feel anxious, however looking at it rationally the reduced sales are understandable due to the time of the year and events going on in the world economy.
We are using the time to sort operations and look at reducing overheads where possible.
