Does anyone shop Handmade items on here?
First post ever on here and thought this place was going to be so much different than it has been in that i been on here for over three years with i believe a little over six hundred original paintings when i started and now just barely over five hundred for sale from coming into handmade and deleting ones sold on other platforms and kind of in disbelief that i have had only a handful of sales in that time here on Amazon Handmade.
Over this time period i have noticed through reports that nearly every time my buy box goes to a dash or once in a while less than one hundred percent that the views are almost always zero for those days and i cannot understand why the box is blank half the time or less than one hundred when every single item i have on Amazon Handmade is an original painting so there are no others like them as far as prints or reproductions that i sell on here or anywhere else!
It is also tiring that my account has been deactivated twice now where i cannot add/edit listings because of inactivity...lol and have to re add info to activate again!
I am sure others have experience this and may be in the same situation but anyone have suggestions and i do not advertise on any platform so this may be strictly a pay to play sell site like others are turning into but i have no idea it just seems very strange that Amazon site would have so little traffic?
