I mostly sell figures, anime/Japanese merchandise and collectibles on eBay, and my sales and traffic have suddenly dropped really badly over the past two weeks or so.

A lot of my listings are getting barely any views, some are getting 0 or 1 views and no watchers even though they’re still active and publicly searchable.

I checked my Seller Hub traffic for the last 30 days and everything seems to be significantly down compared with the previous period:

Organic eBay views: 31.2% decrease
Promoted Listings views: 11.1% decrease
External organic views: 44.6% decrease

Has anyone else experienced something similar recently? Or does anyone know how to fix this issue? Is there something I’m doing wrong?

Hi ^-^ I'm looking to meet some new people! F or M, 22+

I live in the uk and I don't have any friends at all or anyone to speak to be of social anxiety and bad experiences so I'm kind of shooting my shot out here!

I'm into anime, Jujutsu Kaisen is my favourite anime tho :) | also like reading, character ai, collecting anime figures, drawing and other creative stuff :)
If you're into similar things (or don't have to be) I'd love to talk <3

- If you’ll end up ghosting me pls don’t dm me!!

(F,22 from uk) Ive been alone for the past 3 years. I do have a lot of personal issues like social anxiety and other issues so maybe it is my fault but I feel like I need to rant

In terms of friends, l used to try to make friends for example at uni but it seemed like no one wanted to talk to me and conversation led to nothing. Even online I end up getting ignored.

In terms of dating, most men are very pushy. 99% of men I met are always so lustful and don’t respect my boundaries. It’s caused this intimacy issue with me bc of these negative experiences…which results in a cycle, I talk to someone new, I get a hint that all they want is sex or they push my boundaries too much and I withdraw immediately and associate “sex” with a bad thing.

I’ve isolated myself so much bc of it. I try as best as I can especially since I have anxiety but it’s always the same result with both making friends and dating.

It does make me question, is it just me? Is it an issue with my personality? With my looks? Is it my anxiety and other issues that lead to these bad experiences?

I just hateeee this damn cycle, it’s making my own issues worse and worse the more I try.

My ex boyfriend is pressuring me for sex. We broke up last year but started talking again about a few months ago.

I decided to meet him in June for the first time since our break up, we got a hotel to stay in overnight, had some drinks but then he started asking me for sex. I said I didn’t feel comfortable doing it now but then he started saying “Oh but I bought you food and alcohol, can’t you give something back?”, “I don’t know what changed in you, you used to want it”. After repeatedly telling him no, he started sulk, get annoyed with me and didn’t want to talk to me. I cried and then decided to go to sleep. But I woke up to him touching me inappropriately anyways. I was pretty drunk at the time and knew if I tried to stop him again he wouldn’t listen so I let him have sex with me.

Moving forward, I haven’t seen him since that day but I’ve stayed in contact. I told him that if I were to ever see him again I do not want him to pressure me into being intimate again because last time really hurt me with the way he acted. He agreed and said next time we don’t have to do anything.

I’ve made plans to see him over the weekend but he asked me over the call today “Are you going to be ovulating?”, I replied “Does that even matter? I told you I don’t want to do anything intimate”. He again started to sulk and said “so you don’t feel the same way about me?” And “why can’t you just agree to what I want?”. I said no is no, end of. Then he sulked some more and I ended the call because it was a pointless conversation.

What am I supposed to do? How can I get him to understand that I don’t want to do anything intimate with him as of now? Especially after last time, I simply don’t feel comfortable. I’m just unsure how to get it through to him.

(And yes, I understand the easy resolution is to just end things here and now. I just struggle a lot socially and I feel like if I end things with him, I’ll have no one left in my life since I don’t have any friends etc)

After the app glitch my new items I just tried to upload are stuck on processing. Anyone else having this issue or just me?

There’s three figures I’ve been searching everywhere for but unable to find any. I know resellers usually sell their figures on places such as eBay. But I was curious if there’s anywhere else I could buy second hand resin figures or is that just it?

Bought an anime figure off a seller, it arrived after 6 weeks broken. The arm has snapped off, there’s black marks on his body and other paint detail issues. Messaged the seller and he’s only offering me £20 for the damage, surely that’s a bit low considering I payed £250 for it?

The seller himself was acting weird throughout the whole time too. Kept giving me wrong tracking numbers (gave me 4 different ones), said one of the figures he had was broken so I had to wait a bit longer to get an unbroken one…didn’t seem to be the case since mine did come broken.

Is it just me that gets unlucky with their customer service? Their response times are so slow on WhatsApp, I get a message back maybe 3 days after. Still waiting on a response from them from a message I sent on Friday. Is this common?

I received my package today which were 3 figures but I only received 2/3. I reported it to Ali express support and they refunded me in full but they also sent me a return label.

When asked, they told me to ignore the return label because I already received my refund so I don’t have to do anything more.

Although I’m worried that it’ll affect my account, it says on the return page ‘Failing to return them on time may affect your account standing’. Will it actually affect my account or not since they told me to just ignore the label?

I'm pretty new to resin figures so I apologise if this is a dumb question but I know that some GK figures you have to paint yourself and some already come pre painted. When buying on orzgk how do you know which is which?
