| Hi,
I have had my Bricklink shop open for about 6 months and I have only received
10 sales. Can someone tell me a way to increase my sales? Look through my shop
and tell me what I should do to increase my sales. Thanks for your help!

More inventory, minifigures, minifigure parts.
Also your shipping cost is way too expensive. $7.70 to ship a 3 ounce package
from Jersey to CT in almost double cost if you purchase the label online.

How would I set up shipping costs for purchasing the label online? Would I use
request invoice? Do you know where the price chart for purchasing it online is?
Thank you

Thank you so much for your help! As we are both from New Jersey, would you be
able to send your shipping price table so I can gauge what prices are normal?
If you can, send it through my email. Thank you again

You can go to our store and look at our store terms, this will give you a good
idea of what to charge. You can copy and paste anything you want from our store
terms, we wont mind.
Another thing you should try is putting all your parts on sale at around 10 to
15% off. I noticed that all your prices are at the 6 month sales average which
is a good place to start but for a small starting store I think putting your
parts up at 10 to 15% off may really help. I know the closer we get to putting
our parts at 15% off the 6 month sales average the more sales our store receives.
Jim.

I would avoid the advertising in the forum saying you have loads of pieces at
cheap prices, when you don't.
You seem to have a lot of newish (in terms of date) parts that are used and specialise
in nothing. Demand for random used relatively cheap parts is rather low, especially
if you don't have much stock. There are no minifigures or minifigure parts,
these often draw buyers in to a store. To an outside observer, it looks like
you have maybe half a dozen used relatively modern sets that you have parted
out and nothing else.
Do you have onsite payments set up? I get a warning saying you don't ship
if the order is under £135, suggesting there is no way for tax to be collected.
US buyers that need to pay sales tax might also get that same warning and shop
somewhere else.
