Sales drop
I've been a seller on amazon for 12+ years, and almost overnight my product sales have disappeared. I can partly understand if I have new competition, but I have some products with nothing similar anywhere, and still no sales. And yet when I google the product my listings are on the first page.
Who turned off the faucet?

What do you sell? Some categories are seasonal.

Hi @Seller_2ARnO1rtSSx38
I reviewed your seller account. Your product listings are showing correctly in the catalog, and you remain featured offer eligible. A search of your store shows 137 active product listings. Your account has received orders within the last 24 hours. No issues were identified.

The American economy is in trouble. Thousands being layed off.
America needs business people running it.
Not politicians that only care about themselves.
The founding fathers were mostly all business people. Politicians did not exist yet.

I am the thumbs down king when it come to the R word. We believe that amazon is rotating third party sellers in and out sales wise so they can keep FBA going. If you are FBA, then our observations are false.
That being said the economy is not good. People are spending less. The war on oil is a big factor. Everting that moves products from boats to planes to trucks need oil. Then add new overbearing regulation. We saw this with Jimmy C back in the day. Many sellers today don't know about the 70s. C means Carter. It was not good. I have been in the business over 40 years this slowdown can and may get much worse. Sellers should get their finances and inventory secure. Slim down on debt and do not be afraid to make smaller orders for a while. Many sellers are not going to make it till this is over. Our opinion.
We are all over google. Sales are down here more than any other platform, so it is hard to talk about sales from the net. Maybe we are seeing amazon has peaked and people are looking elsewhere.

Back to school time is always bad for some niches. Plus, Amazon Prime Day just gets a bunch of people feeling shoppers fatigue usually results in slower sales for days/weeks to follow.

I thought it was just me! I sell books and almost 2 months ago the faucet shut off. and my items are hidden even though I'm the cheapest price and my rating is five stars and I've been selling on Amazon for almost 30 years. Amazon is screwing their third party sellers. I'm not sure why more people are not talking about it. items used to be displayed on the first page even if you didn't have the buy box and you were the cheapest but for books at least that is no longer the case. and it is very difficult and nearly impossible to find a third party listing that is the cheapest. they did this before but maybe for one month not this long. I'm liquidating most of my inventory and I will be getting out of the book business or selling in a different way. so I'm writing this to let you know it's not just you: (

Ya same I sell parts... I recently been noticing that adding new inventory is impacting sales? Anyone else feel that?
