Drop in Sales in the last two to three weeks

Hi Folks, I have noticed a big drop in sales, particularly in the past two to three weeks to the UK and Germany where I sell a fair bit. I’m not sure why but wondered if anyone has had a similar issue.

Please check this thread where multiple sellers are discussing their experience of suffering from decrease of sales and actions and steps taken to improve their listings:

Also, as you may have noticed, there was recently a thread regarding a site-wide technical issue which was known to affect orders, however this was already fixed and Amazon currently does not appear to be acknowledging any other problems:

Yes a lot of sellers have had the same issue some 50 percent down. Amazon recently changed search algorithm and probably soneyujng else. Too many people are down signifigantly last few weeks for no reason

Search ‘Christmas Jumpers’.

Sponsored results aside how many of the results on the first page are actually remotely related to a christmas jumper? Yet there are thousands of Christmas jumper listings, on that first page every single product returned should be a christmas jumper.

Do the same search on eBay, the results are much more relevant.

Amazon search is broken.

In the last 2 years I have never not had atleast 15-20 sales. Today I am on zero. Never had this before.

happened same thing to us, i even remember the time around 14:45, 5th of September 2019. We were having blast of a week then all of sudden everything stopped. No orders for rest of the day then it continued for next 3-5 days. then received one or two orders for next couple of days and it’s been the same ever since.

Really disappointed…

I looked at one of my items yesterday at 3.95 delivered and amazon had the buy box at 12.99…….when customers notice this there will be a backlash.
