Xmas sales on bonanza: keep me abreast of your success

I’m wondering if we’ll get some sales today and tomorrow, considering most people in the U.S. will be not working AND due to corona virus, many won’t even be visiting relatives.
I’m thinking (hopefully) they’ll be so bored they’ll want to spend that xmas cash right away.

Let me know how your online sales went (including all your other sales platforms). I’m interested in knowing.

For me, so far there’s been no sales on any site.

Not too bad this year…for part time seller

For Nov-Dec got 34 sales with 2 that came in last night after midnight…I did do a turbo traffic pack and the bonz holiday coupon..

And ironically, for Nov-Dec 34 on my website….I also got one last night after midnight too…

Since I am a part-time seller…I am pleased

and

Good for you! I haven’t done that well, but a slight pickup from the previous months. You’re doing better in your part-time selling than, I think, even the full-time sellers are doing.

I see that I am getting a lot of views, last week it went from about 145 views to 1400+ views but zero sales. I normally get one to two sales a month with about 145 views weekly, but I have not gotten any sales at all for Dec. on Bonanza. I do get sales from my own site and other platforms..

I’m wondering if the high postal rates are causing the issue. Plus, Bozo’s combined shipping is messed up. It really raises the overall cost of items.

In the last 30 days I’ve gotten 768 views on Bonanza and several of my products have been added to wish lists, but I still have 0 sales :(
I did get sales consistently on another platform, but haven’t gotten any in the past 5 days. I’m also curious to see if I get sales on this other platform during the holidays.

No sales for me today (Dec. 25). I was hoping bored people would be buying

So on another platform i am selling 40 to 50 sales a day and on here this one 12 sales for the month. So why isn’t there some advertising to let people know about this site? How many people have you talked to even heard of this Bonanza Site?

When I mention ‘Bonanza’, no one knows what I’m talking about. I heard that The View and a couple other places talked about this selling site as ‘up and coming’. I think there’s just too much online competition for one selling platform save Amazon, which is taking over the world can achieve.

Wow! 40-50 sales a day? Congrats! Can I ask what this platform is? How long did it take you to get to this many sales per day?

its on Ebay for December i have had 1300 sales with 4 more days to go, So as you can see i have 6000 listing with over 20000 items cause its shared here. so its taken about 2 years to get that many listings wrote out and pictured for sale

Thanks for answering, aawmiller. Ebay’s unfortunately not a good option for me, but I’m still very impressed by your accomplishment.

Things are holding steady. Hoping for some people being online to spend their Christmas money today or tomorrow, but other online retail sites are also offering great spending opportunities, AND THEY DO ADVERTISE, so don’t know what will happen. Hang in there.

Here’s hoping. My Dec. 25th hasn’t been a happy day. I was expecting a sale or two. Instead, I got no sales and a lot of grief at home. So we’ll see if tomorrow is better in both areas.

Gooey_Ghost says: December 25, 2020

Sorry to hear about the grief at home, QuakerMaid. I’ve been there in past years.

I got one sale on another selling site ~that was previously mentioned here by one of the Answerers.
I think a huge problem here on Bozo is that the site is messed [URL removed]
*Combined shipping isn’t working for most, if not all, sellers.
*Sold or deleted items keep reappearing as
available’.
*Shipping is too high here on this platform. (And if you set a price or add it into the cost of the items, the customer is paying shipping ‘per’ as opposed to getting calculated shipping for multi-purchases.)
*No one knows about this site.

I like this platform, regardless of the above issues because they don’t seem to penalize a seller when a transaction has to be voided (in all the cases I’ve had, it was due to the item being deleted/sold, but reappearing as available.), there’s no listing fees (yet), and the FVF is low (as of right now).
If this was that other selling site, I would have high-tailed it out of here.

Yeah, nothing for me here on Bozo. Only one sale on the other site. Still today (Dec. 27), there has been no sales other than that one on the other site.

I’ve done really well on another site. I’m honestly just using this site for items that I need to take better pics of before posting them on my other site.
