Orders are always slow coming when you have the level of stock that you currently
have.

You will find that larger quantities of specific items and a greater range will
help, it does take time.

Not checked your prices as you don't currently ship to U.K. which doesn't
surprise me as you need to be comfortable supplying your home market first.

I found that when my stock reached certain counts the orders came much more readily.

Best of luck.

Your prices are reasonable, but your entire store is only $150. You either need
a lot more variety or a lot more quantity.

Just relax and work on your inventory. You don't have a lot of lots right
now and the summer tends to be slow anyway. For the record, it took me around
6 weeks to get my first sale, and I opened my store around this time last year.

And by "work on your inventory" I mean part out more sets, or buy some bulk older
Lego and list it. Look for parts that sell well:

Right now from a quick glance, you only have common pieces. Get some minifigures
in your store. Those always sell really well.
