    So at least a million listings1. Unaffected sellers probably had a good evening, then again who knows? They probably ended up promoting all the below standard sellers in best match searches.

    I wasn't going to say anything, but I exceeded my daily sales for as far back as I remember (but don't forget I am small fry- so my numbers are small ). The odd thing was the htings I sold are not stuff carried by big sellers- so it almost looks like I got sales because people were determined to buy something.

    I found the opposite, yesterday was as dry as a gnat's chuff compared to normal and earlier in the week. By comparison, today has been crazy busy so far.

    At least someone did ok. I'm fairly sure we've had the worst 7 days in the last few months and probably longer. Compare that with the best week on Amazon ever, so easy to see what I'll be concentrating on.

    My last sale on my small run was about 0.30am this morning, and not a sniff or even a bid since then.

    I also gave one of my offline thoughts a try, and have had interest on that so may well look to move a little off line for a while.

    My listings disappeared last night.
    I didn't received the email about exceeding my listing limits but all my 'live' listings vanished from my shop and didn't show up in searches but they were still in My ebay > Selling.
    I managed to revive some by revising them but gave up about 2.30am and went to bed.
    All my listings a back live this morning. Pity there's no sales though.
