It really depends on what you want to do with your store, supplement your hobby,
replace some income, or something entirely different?

Less than 900 lots and 9000 items is a bit low for consistent sales.

IMO, the reseller market is a bit over saturated right now with people thinking
those is a quick money, low effort business. It is anything but that, I've
been doing this for a while and I only turned a taxable profit last year.

So, what do you want to do with your store and folks may be able to advise better.

Good luck

You have too few lots to have consistent sales. I didn't check your prices
but even with 2,500-3,000 lots, for example, you need to price below the 6-month
average to get consistent sales in my experience.
