    I have let my listings drop to 0 from about 14,000 while I decide whether or not to stay & if I do how I will organise/stratagise things.
    I know a lot of others will have done the same but I didn't realise how many. Just done a search & found there are roughly 1,500,000 live listings for postcards.
    I may be wrong but I'm sure last time Idid the same search there was about 5,500,000.
    What a fall from grace, it may well influence my decision on whether or not to come back.

    On the whole Delcampe listing, there are more than 49000000 postcards.
    Probably you have seen the lower number on the English sites.
    To my thinking the drop to zero listing is a mistake.
    You can list up to 1000 items for free. And up to 10000 for a small fee (That's my figure of listing).
    Wish you a happy New Year.

    @baltija - Interesting screenshots you provided, thanks for sharing!

    We’d like to share our global numbers; these stats come directly from Delcampe’s “Sales” > “My sales statistics.”

    We’ve lost about 25% of our sales income for 2024. It’s not as bad as we initially thought, although I can confirm that the first four months of 2024 account for most of these numbers. In the last quarter of 2024, we sold only 50% of what we did in the last quarter of 2023. Before the changes, we would average about 10 orders on a weekend; now we manage about half of that in the best of cases.

    As for items sold, in 2023 we sold 3,865 items, while in 2024 we sold 2,600 items, that is 33% fewer overall.

    With the current fee system Delcampe has implemented, our own calculations show that the marketplace profits less from us compared to the old system. It’s hard to understand why Delcampe isn’t acknowledging that they earn less now. In our view, it benefits neither the platform nor its sellers nor its buyers, which raises the question: why keep such a fee structure in place?

    We wish you all a Happy New Year 2025!

    Your stats reflect your sales, but do no reflect Delcampe's income.My sales stats are about the same as yours,showing similar reductions in sales...however on my other sites it seems there is a similar drop,but not quite as much.
    The competion for sales has increased overall and with buyer premiums added here, it is not surprising.I still believe the old system here was more benefical for buyers and sellers.
