Question
I don't know about everyone else selling on ebay, but my sell thru rate has been about 20% for the last 6 weeks or so.
Are you also doing this poorly?
I feel I am spending a lot of my monies on listing and final value fees these days?
With the great hoilday season almost here, I sure do hope it pick up for me and everyone else that is having the same low sell thru rate !

Answer
Boy do I know what you mean! I have 34 listed & bids on only 3 of them. Last week wasn't much better.
I was debating about putting on some Christmas decorations but there doesn't seem to be much traffic out there.
How's everybody else doing???
Answer
I think it all depends on what types of items you sell. For some types of things my sell through rate is close to or at 100%. For other things it's around 50%. For yet other types of items it's around 80%.
I'd like to have more of the 100% items
Answer
Unless I'm listing batches of auctions from the new set - otherwise my auction listings are to generate store traffic and its harder to measure that sell-through rate generation.
Also, some of my listing are dutch fixed priced listings - and I'm selling out & having to relist prior to the 7 day listing running its course.
Hubby sold some videos over the weekend and had 59% sellthrough rate from batch #1, and all but 3 items are paid for already. Now he's got the relistings up with 1 new item, and has another batch ready to go this weekend.
