Has anyone else noticed that a few of their items just don’t get traction? I’ve not changed the sort of stuff I list but I see occasionally items that I list get only 1,2,3 etc views over 30 days which is pretty unheard of for me up until now. After a month I’ll end and sell similar, and often these new listings will hit the ground running no problem. I ask ChatGPT and it says it’s just a ‘visibility problem not an item problem’. Just made me wonder if anyone else sees a small number of their items just get ‘buried’ from the get go.
Appearing active on eBay… is this a thing??
Sooo… I’m currently working away from home and my wife is taking care of everything eBay while I’m not there, we had 9 sales from Thursday and Friday, followed by a no sale day yesterday right up until lunchtime today, so I messaged my wife and suggested she printed off the postage labels from Thursday/friday to see if that would kickstart eBay and the algorithm. 3 sales in 2 hours straight after the labels were printed and plenty of new available offers to send out, is this just coincidence or was my theory correct and have we proved it with our test?

I’ve noticed that eBay can deliver sales that are markedly different from day to day. Technsports once said that it can often give you a better day after a rubbish day - a sort of evening out of things. I’ve certainly had an amazing day followed by a zero day more times than I can remember. For sales that follow in quick succession it might be worth watching Polish Pete’s YouTube channel. He talks about Green Waves and I really do believe that’s a thing. Also regarding your specific situation earlier, I guess we will never know for sure but I think it’s not only fresh listings that drive quality impressions, it can be all different types of activity. I have seen a boost in views and consequently sales after entering a big batch of custom SKUs on my items, after getting a run of positive feedback and other non listing related things. I’ve also seen rate of views decline for several hours after getting a returns request. It’s all very interesting. But ultimately, although it would be good to have a definitive on cause and effect, I think some people notice this stuff more than others so it’s hard to get a broad consensus on whether it’s just conspiracy or fact.

Meant to get on but son broke his leg in a motorbike accident last week so been playing doctors and nurses and importantly how I’m going to work his requirements into my listing and processing schedule over the next week or two. Gonna watch the replay while I rework some old listings.

EBay card reader
After watching @Jamie Sullivans live the other day on replay whilst at work, he mentioned card machines / readers for car boots and that. For anyone that’s going to eBay open, could anyone ask them if EBay would ever do card machines? Designed to only work with business eBay sellers when out in person selling, be that car boots, fairs, fetes etc, depending what you sell. So we know the main ones like sumup, stripe, even banks have them now for your phones. Could eBay do one, 1.5% transaction fee +20p eBay fee per sale. Or even 50p per sale with 0% transaction fee. Even if it’s on the eBay app so you can have it on your phone. Links directly to your ebay account. Would that be something people would use? Poll below. Also would that be something someone could ask at the eBay open?

I’d never buy from someone by card at a boot sale. It’s just too risky. If it became a thing you’d get people arriving and setting up with the sole intention of skimming your card details and while 95% of people would be honest resellers, it only takes one to empty your account. Cash will always be king at the boot. Bank transfer would be a safer option for larger purchases. At least the buyer could verify the recipient on their banking app.
AI Activate and ChatGPT Work / Codex
Is anyone using the eBay AI Activate workspace in ChatGPT? I have used it for a while but I keep hearing that there are new features in ChatGPT which allow it to have sight of an open web browser and also to have access to your photos or documents in windows file explorer using either ChatGPT Work or something called Codex. I'm trying to navigate through this as it would speed up my listing times if it could look directly at my Chrome browser (for ending and selling similar - optimising titles and descriptions), and also if it had direct access to my eBay photos folder on my PC (removing the need for me to copy and paste photos into the ChatGPT chat). Can anyone offer advice on setting this up because there seems to be some restriction accessing ChatGPT "Work" within the AI Activate workspace. I think i'm too old for this- now know how my grandparents felt when I used to get called over there to set up their video recorder lol.

@Lawrence Smith thanks so much. I did create a GPT and then a project some time ago and, after an absolute shedload of fine tuning, I have it working effectively as a listing tool, creating optimised titles, descriptions and item specifics. But it was a real lot of work to get it where I want it. With these new tools, I was hoping to streamline the listing process further but I think the consensus is right - we are locked down within the AI Activate workspace to a certain degree. Hopefully that will change at some point. I do find it interesting that using ChatGPT in a web browser allows me to use the new Chat GPT Voice, but on the desktop app, I can’t.

@Sam Colbear Hi Sam. Thanks for the info - I think you’re right - we have limited access to the feature set. I created a GPT and then a project some time ago and it’s working well after a lot of work and pulling out of hair I can ill afford to lose. I do as you do currently, dragging over some photos and going from there.
