I Increased My Sales Price on all of my Items on 4 sites by 2% – 4 % and sales have actually increased in one of my stores and sells still coming in on the other 2.
Everything in the USA has increased by atlest 2% this year. Time for sellers to catch up.

I agree, Zappy, that we need to keep a watch on our costs. It’s easy to let it slip by without an increase, and before too long, you’re not making money.
I, for one, need to figure out the shipping profiles on Bonanza. I have them on another site and it is SO EASY to go in and change them and automatically update all the listings attached. I am in Canada, so it’s not quite as easy for me and I fear my shipping costs are woefully behind on Bonanza.
I used to use bannerfans and insert banners which I could then change, but that site doesn’t seem to be working, and most of my listings don’t seem to display the banners anymore, so it’s not surprising I haven’t more sales. Most of my items don’t give the shipping cost!
Good luck for your continued success.

I have let my shipping costs slip by for the last 2 years but with the rates from the PO going up in Jan 2019, Unfortunately, I will need to raise the ship prices. So for anybody looking to buy, Shipping will never be any lower than it is RIGHT NOW (and I am not just talking my stuff) as increase from the PO will be quite steep in 2019.
Unrelated to online selling but you may also want to stock up a bit on First Class FOREVER stamps as those are going from .50 to .55 cents (a 10 percent increase) just as a everyday example come January 2019.
