What To Do When Ebay Sales SLOW DOWN!
When Sales Are Slow Make Space For 2025 Incoming Stock!
When you follow a daily workflow routine such as packing orders, posting orders, photography and listing it can be hard to adjust when things start to take different amounts of time, but we need to be able to adjust and pivot as the day requires us to!
If like me, you only have 2 orders going out today then you can reduce the amount of time that is sectioned out for - Posting & Packing and add more time to other stages of the business such as photography, tidying & optimising your space or even consolidation on your storage system.
Take this peek into my day as a full time ebay reseller in the UK.

Too low
@@Nese-i9k Too low for my gut instinct…. What sis a number you would accept? I have £160 minimum in my mind for some reason 🤷♂️😅
just get a shoe brush. one with soft bristles and one with firm bristles for the sole. add soap and scrub away like mad
@@jordandoesmx9862 Shoe brush got it, I have a similar one but it has like a hair remover tool on the other side not firm bristles. Gotta add some cleaning tools to my armoury I reckon 🫡 Thanks for watching and dropping a comment 😊
@TommyTrades96 i also use a steam cleaner. It really eats away at that kind of dirt that just wont scrub off ✌️
@ Oooooooo that’s a genius idea too! Hadn’t thought about that I’ve got one of those I use for stubborn creased clothing, will give it a go 🫡🫡
Dude, think it all depends heavily on how much YOU paid for the item......so that jacket, if you paid a 10er, got a total steal, etc, then 125, ain't that bad, but if you paid like 80quid for it, 125, after fees, is a kick in the balls, u know what i mean?
@@BLK2000 Yeah I know exactly what you mean, you are probably right. I’ve gotta learn to detach from my stock, I think it’s where things currently my “best listed item” I was reluctant to accept the first inbound offer on it. Maybe gotta lower my expectations and just get the cashflow back 🫡
@@BLK2000 Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment too 🙏🥳
@ gotta do what's right for you man. Plus sum ppl will just b cheeky and low ball ya any rate, Take it easy dude :)
@ thanks again for commenting buddy! If this offer was too low it atleast showed me that the item does have genuine interest and not just window shoppers. But I do need to be open to lower amounts. Peace n love dude ✌️
I’m with you on the show cleaning thing, I watch tutorials and it looks easy and kinda satisfying but when I try it myself nothing seems to happen haha 🤦🏻
@@thebibleblack8954 I’m so glad I’m not the only one! It seems you put a whole ton of elbow grease in to get very little results 😅 using surface cleaner and a microfibre cloth has been my most successful method yet but is very labour intensive should I say 🤣
With the jacket, in some ways depends on how much was paid for it. £100 in the bank isn’t bad, if you were receiving multiple offers around £125 then I’d sell.
@@Married2Reselling I see what you are saying, I guess where it was the first inbound offer I’ve had on it I was reluctant to accept it without trying to counter and hold out first. But they didn’t come back after I countered. If I get more around that range then I’ll assume that’s the true market value. Thanks for watching guys 🙏

Congrats on the sale mate, how did you fix your traffic? My sales seem to have fallen off a cliff lately with the odd crazy day here and there
@@ricky8448 Thankyou so much for watching 🫡 It’s an odd one with traffic, I messed it up previously when i accidentally ended my ongoing marketing campaign for 5 days. My traffic fell off a cliff at this point and I’ve been trying to claw it back ever since 😅 posting daily, reducing oldest stock prices , improving titles etc on sticky stock, start a promotion of not already using it, or increase your % a little if you are using one. Offer coupons 10% works great for me. Or even a Markdown sale can work too but usually performs better for larger % off like 30%-40%. Best for when you want to clean stock out 🫡
Thank you for your response pal. I’ll do a bit of tweaking, fingers crossed it picks up soon
You’re back- YEY Happy new year👍👍
Happy new year tommy hope you crack this year and go from strength to strength 🎉

Usually if i get an XL or jeans that have shrunk, i always list the size as the actual real size and explain that that the label doesn't match, also reach out to buyer to double check. has defo helped reduce returns/refunds
@@zebuuu7196 Hiyaa Zebuuu! Ahhhhh okay, I get you. So list it as the current measurements size rather than the original label size. Makes sense really…. Will follow this for future reference 🫡 Thanks mate!!
How do you source your stuff? Yours looks pretty self contained in one room and I'm at a similar scale but struggle to keep above 30 listings
@@dwarvenbatman Thanks for watching & dropping a comment. I source the majority of my stock from charity shops but do a few bundle deals here and there also. I did do a massive clothing bulk deal earlier in the year which is still working through too. My space is across two rooms at the moment but majority of stock kept in one room. Currently at 649 active listings 🫡
Yeee let’s gooo first vid of 2025!!! 🎉
@@_tweak_audio_ Yeee boiii! Feels like we’re already well into January now! But better late than never haha
There goes the theory that you need to keep listing to get sales. Glad you had a nice break & good to see you back! Hope 2025 is a great year for you! 😊👍
@@SoftCell68-br1tt That’s a great point! Once your store has stock in it, it can sell regardless if you are continuing to list more items, but your traffic will be higher overall with new listings going live too, which should increase the sales you get. So defo not required but i would certainly have made more money if I had continued to list 👌 Thankyou so much, I hope the holiday season was good to you too! We’re back and feeling better about the year ahead than I’ve felt thus far in my reselling journey! Plenty more to come let’s smash it together 🥳🫶
I think what’s more important is having items people want to buy rather than listing daily.
Its good to recharge your batteries. Its all about a work life balance. Happy new year🎉
@@Nese-i9k I couldn’t agree more! I hope you had a great holiday season! Happy New Year! 🥳🥂
Ebay only does things that benefit themselves and even if it looks like it benefits you or they say it does... it Truely doesnt !!!
not conspiracy at all . happens to me every month
I hav had 2 days with 300-400 sales and that pretty much it
how can you offer free shipping on most things? do you add the cost of shipping into the price of the item
Soo I never used to offer free shipping, and then I made changes to my store to do everything eBay was asking for to see if it would increase my sales. Free postage, free returns etc. I’d say it felt like I got a boost at first. And since then has balanced itself out. I generally offer free postage on clothing and then add a postage fee to the buyer for hard goods. But yeah, I just bake the cost of the postage into the sale of the item. I find having the “free in 3” days postage badge on the clothing listings really helps 👌
I have a great suspicion of the auctions recently. Something seems very odd with the bidding process. I hate being taken for a mug.
Always open to conspiracy talk and I think it’s fair to say any platform as big as eBay or that uses algorithms and so on can all play god within the realms that they have created. I’ve said it many times before there’s too many strings that can be pulled and played in ways that can benefit whoever they choose, when, why and how is all down to our own individual choices 🤷🏼♂️ or is it…
Mmm conspiracy 🤤
@@_tweak_audio_ It’s so consistent it can’t just be a coincidence right??! 🤷♂️ I’m happy becuase it makes me sales, but at the same time, I’d rather have made the money from those sales myself than my good stock sold to cover the cost and bring me back to 0. It’s always on great items too
Im a ~$100K per year mostly physical media pacing for $150K+ for 2025 (USA based). I started my youtube channel a few weeks ago explaining how I do it. Feel free to delete this shameless channel plug :D

I reduced my subscription to basic store. Ive only got 400 items in my shop.
@@retrobootdisc And do you find it’s had an effect on sales in anyway? I’ve been trying to push the numbers up on my store to really take advantage of the listing allowance, but man it takes a long time to fill up, especially when things sell as quick as you list them sometimes!
@@TommyTrades96 no difference with sales, just not unnecessarily giving ebay extra money. (they can keep thier £10 voucher) i try to keep my store lean, i need to have a clear out and delist crap thats been sitting for a year. my store sell through rate is pretty decent. current 90 day numbers are 472 active and 479 items sold. so im selling though my store quite quickly, it should probably be higher, as ive got stuff still listed that should get rid of as its not gonna sell. i'll make another carboot pile :)
the lesson ive taken from this, get into debt with ebay as much as possible
@@zebuuu7196 HAHAHAA 😅🤣 It would seem that way right?! (Not Financial Advice) 😅🤣
Never noticed that with the shop fee. It usually just comes out of our bank after a while. We switched our shop on holiday and woke up to five sales this morning !
@@thats_flipping_retro Weird, I’ve never had it charged to my bank, always eBay funds and then it tends to force sales to cover it within hours 😅 I’m not complaining as sales are sales, but it feels like a switch gets turned on and off 🤣

Drop in sales is bound to happen now.. postage will be delayed due to Christmas and the customer knows this.. Boxing day forward will see normal sales expecially as people will be off work sitting at home. My ebay store has slowed since last week no worries.
@@MrLetExplore 100% agree, although the postage situation this year doesn’t seem anywhere near as bad as previous years. It used to clog up at the start of December but seems to just be limited to Xmas period now 👌 Will you be offering a Boxing Day discount? Coupon? Markdown sale? 🤔
No, I don't tend to offer markdowns just decrease price on items listed for a while in general. Anything that takes a long time to sell I.e 3-6 months I auction off starting at a price I'd be happy with as a minimum.
@ Nice that’s defo a good strategy that helps to keep ontop of your stockflow. I’ve been trying to take part in “sale periods” that fall into the year like Black Friday, Halloween sale, Xmas sale, Boeing day sale, new year sale or coupons. But just leaning into the promotion of these times and have seen some good success with it. While also doing the same thing as yourself. Just trying to give more opportunities to get things sold
That's incredible tommy. You have great knowledge on this category
@@DeniseWinton-d9n Thankyou, it only comes from a little curiosity and bunch of research. I was only scratching the surface with this too, since recording so many experts have reached out with even more detail about them 👌 Always something else to learn in find 😊
first 2 weeks of this month were the best sales period in this Q4 for me. If you look at promoted impressions it should show a drop off over the last week as last minute xmas buyers think its unlikely anything they buy will arrive before xmas.
yeah I was the same, best was first 2 weeks of December if not September into October period. I was expecting a slow down as close as week are to Xmas now. But this was recorded during early December just off the back of Black Friday and Novembers sales. It’s always up and down for sure, I’m not on holiday mode for Xmas and will be building up my draft bank ready for the new year 🥳🍾🥂 might even stick a cheeky Boxing Day coupon / sale on too 😉
