Weird phenomenon or coincidence?

So the last few days sales have begun to trickle in again but I'm seeing something unusual. Absolutely no sales from the US where I am based. 🤔 Germany, Switzerland, Australia, etc but nothing here. Anybody else noticing this? It's like nobody "here" is seeing my stuff. Seems that either Zazzle is showing my stuff more across the pond (3rd party sales), or someone else is reaping benefits of an affiliate sale (Thank you and congrats!).

All my recent sales are U.S.  Maybe it's a specific affiliate.

I'm guessing the affiliate. I had sold quite a few of a specific air freshener in Germany so I'm going to assume somebody has a pretty good location they are sharing an affiliate link. Just seems weird that all the sales are from overseas but I ain't complaining!

I have also seen an increase in air freshener sales to Germany which I thought was strange. But a sale is a sale, so I will take it!

Coincidence... all of my recent sales have been US too. Last international one was the 3rd.

And mine have been mainly in the U.S.

many of my recent sales are U.S. based ... my non-U.S. sales (Europe, Australia, etc.) tend to be blips.

 I haven't had any recent sales.  It's like they've totally stopped.  So far my royalties total less than $1.00 this month.  I know July is always bad, but this is really sad.

Probably just a coincidence, but I will say as someone who has sold stuff online for years and years July and at least the beginning of August have always been the slowest times. Lots of people go on vacation this time of year or are just generally busy with summer fun. I don't think it's a coincidence that the 'zon picks July for having their big Prime Day sale probably helps to boost their bottom line during an otherwise slow sales month.

I have both international and domestic sales coming in so I think you are just having a weird phenom coincidence. 😉

Happens to me too,... Those days the sales are very weak or stop completely for the U.S.,... 😞
