We have not had any orders for the past couple of days. This is odd since it
is normally the busiest time of the year. Anyone else having this problem?

Sales are lower at the moment and with everyone having sales, people are shopping
around.
I just checked a couple of items I would be interested, but I find them cheaper
in other stores, sometimes half your price, that could also cause the low number
of sales.

All the best

Have you looked at your prices? The last 4 sets I bought I got cheaper on Ebay
than here. I don't know what nerve you guys have charging more while paying
a third of the fees but maybe that is affecting your sales? For example look
at 10225 and 75187. Both cheaper on ebay than here.

E-Bay is treasure hunting and you are to buy whats happen to be sold that specific
day when you search. It might be cheaper but you might also not find what you
are looking for. Or put in another way: "E-bay" sort of makes the decision of
what you are able to buy today.

BrickLink with its massive database and thousands of connected sellers is more
like a warehouse with close to everything that Lego manufactured. Here you are
the master and decides what you want to buy - with mostly quick delivery and
beforehand checked quality. That is a service that comes with a price, of course.
