Default What's happening with ebay and esty?

Are sales on these two sites still sluggish? Are site sales improving or is it still a few months wait to get a buyer?

In my experience ebay has dropped way off, Etsy is picking up. Selling similar items (small tops) on both. I am looking forward to getting home and putting some finished quilts on Etsy.

I have not even been able to sell fabric stash I must clear out at 2-3 bucks a yard. Not to mention lots of scrap boxes. they used to go fast. I think everyone is just having to cut back and people with money go to the quilt shops.

A friend just sent me this link for selling stash, etc.
http://yardsellr.com/block/quilting
I haven't had time to explore it yet, so can't comment one way or the other.
