Absolutely no sales. Anybody else?
Has anybody else experienced a huge drop in sales as of recent? Last month or so?
Down 70% and have not had a sale for 6 days. Fear this is going to send us out of business if this continues.
Account health is perfect. No account issues.

The economic situation in UK is now poor
The big tax rises in April mean people have little money for non-essential purchases from places like Amazon and other online stores.
You seem to be selling electrical goods like phones laptops watches the type of thing people will put off buying in current situation unless their current one is broken or can't be mended. You may see more orders in your sector as we get closer to Windows 10 support ending and people seek a Window 11 compliant product.
Yes sales have been slow and infrequent, A regular comment over past couple of months.

Check your buy boxes, search suppressions, and check your browse nodes are intact.

I guess you're FBA? I'm FBM, and yes, holidays, the economy etc., do have effects, but so do Amazon's bots/algorithms. I find that some of my items are inexplicably very popular for a short time.
Check buy boxes, suppressions etc., but I think it's the bots testing for popular products. They push some things and suppress others, trying to find what sells best.

Yep very quiet. And we are very quiet on our other platforms as well. Its the economy and overall feeling people have right now regarding the country in general. It weighs on spending confidence and a lot of people are worrying about their jobs and money. We are down roughly 35% on last year. Also people will be spending on holidays instead of non essential amazon items.

I believe there was also an Ad outage yesterday which wouldn't have helped

Same here, sales are down but just customers not buying as money is tight?

Same here, slow sales on Amazon and other selling platforms too. Usually May to July is slow for items we are selling, but this year it is extremely quiet.

We’ve got zero sales today. All ASINs are in stock, ads are running, but absolutely no sales. No idea what’s happening.

Yes, very poor period. It also doesn't help that the search engine is so poor that potetnial customers won't even find the products with their correct brand names.

yes, same here. Amazon sales only 1/3 of the other marketplaces.
