This is pathetic!! I have the usual dozen items listed this week. Normally I have over half of them sold by this late in the week. This week...2 bids!!
Is everyone else out there sucking wind or is it what I'm selling?? I know Ebay is having yet another period of "instability" but this is the pits.

I must be bidding on the wrong items, have been out bid on the last 2 I lost and they had over 10 bids each, one hit the hot list. The others I am bidding on have 4-6 bids each...

Hi harmonygrove,
I've noticed many bidders are waiting till the last minute lately. I had some books go off last night that I was worried about but last minute bidding came through and I did better then I had originally expected. Just hang in there and it will probably be ok in the end.

My bids have gone into the toilet this week. I have cancelled several auctions and I don't think I will relist anything until Ebay gets their servers stabilized. I think the fact that a lot of features become unusable during peak hours is causing bidders to not be able to get their bids in.

Seems like fairly normal bidding from my end. I am starting to get picky about what I list now on eBay. I relist less too...off it goes to Yahoo.

The buyers are still out there. I noticed that sales on Amazon and Yahoo have picked up. I think bidders get just as frustrated as sellers with eBay.
And since we both can walk, with just a keystroke, we do.

yes...my auctions have also been really slow to get bids..I was hoping it was starting to pick up for the Christmas season....I am going to hang in there, But this is very frustrating.......

That's because I was away on vacation last week when everyone said how wonderful bids were. Am back now and no bids. Hanging in there though.
