don't know about anyone else but my sales have been plain old weird since...hurricane katrina. some days fine, other days nada. maybe people are worried about gas prices and heating their homes this winter, too.
sales don't totally suck, but actually august was a better month so far, and august is usually one of the slower times.

I was selling like crazy till hurricane Katrina also then it slowed off for about a week and half but has picked back up. I have nothing list cause the other hurricane is so close to our coast and they keep changing the track,I didn't want to have to tote a bunch of eBay stuff with me if we went inland some to get away from the water. Will prolly list tonight or tomorrow cause it looks like it is finally turning up to NC

Slower than they have ever been.
I think the $3.00+ gas and now the hurricane have everybody spending less on the internet.

I think things are starting to settle down - Katrina & gas prices left everyone wondering what was going to happen with the economy. Now that New Orleans is getting back up and running in places, I think it will pick up - gas is already under $3 a gallon.
I have had just the opposite as some others. My lower price stuff is selling better than higher price. I am going to start listing heavily again.
