Suddenly, after many years selling successfully and regularly (daily) on Zazzle, i have had no sales for over a week. Any reason for this - has anyone any knowledge of why this should be happening ?

Could be any number of reasons. The recent price increases, people need their money just to get by…less to no disposable income, people more worried about feeding their babies than buying a pretty pillow or coffee mug. Not to mention a lot of people are feeling very income and food insecure, so much so that it borders on depression. People are afraid to let go of their money for frivolous purchases.

Gas prices increasing, the war in Ukraine, inflation … Zazzle isn’t a necessity and many people are struggling to put food on the table and pay rent. It’s a very hard time for many people right now.

I have shops on Redbubble and TeePublic and they’ve also crashed since the beginning of March.
I suspect inflation was going to be a problem this year regardless, but Putin and his violent dream of reuniting the old soviet bloc + harsh lockdowns in China causing supply chain issues + the effects of Covid19 on labor supply, have all exacerbated the situation tremendously.
<edit> and Zazzle’s recent price increase hasn’t helped; Zazzle has always been more pricey than other print on demand outlets, at least when it comes to clothing.

It is really a bummer for any of us counting on Z sales. I thought the prices were high before now they are obviously out of the reach of most especially with the world as it is.
