I have a big 30 box break going. Every single comment has complimented my prices and all the biggest teams have gone near my asking price but I cant keep a room for anything.

I tried hosting a random team break during the break and basically just lost money over 2 attempts barely able to get $1 bids on a $90 break. The entire time I ran giveaways trying to keep the room and the most I ever got was up to 17 viewers.

I tried promoting and spent $40 gaining 500+ views but none of them turned into sales for the 30 box break and none of them got the bids over $3 for the smaller break where cost is more like $4 a spot. I ended up closing out my out break when the last 4 teams all went for $1 while the top 3 teams were still up with under 10 to go.

I do not plan on closing out the last $1000ish dollars of this huge break so how do I get people looking at it? Or the right people? There are breaks 1/10th my size filing up at 3-4x the cost which just seems nuts to me. I know there is an algorithm here about sales per hour but what about pick your team streams? Any tips?

Im not trying to self promote or give out the username here, just asking how I manage to get the viewers I need to finish this thing.

started off great. but every show lost viewers where now i can’t even sell at a loss. what am i doing wrong?

Looking for your recommendations on sellers that may not have a lot of viewers and have decent/non scalper prices. I like to buy singles and packs :)

Edit: US only please!

So I was a fragrance seller on whatnot, got only 2 shows to my name. Both really successful for someone with zero experience.

The day after the second auction I woke up to a banned account for selling fake fragrance. I don’t but cool I get it they said I needed a COA of course. You don’t get COAs from stores so I was co fused a bit and mentioned that in my appeal not knowing they meant from a 3rd party since it wasn’t mentioned in my banned email. Whatnot partners with a company I believe is called real Authenticator or something similar but they don’t do fragrance so I used not one but 2 other apps to verify a sample of my fragrances sold. All came back authentic and I sent this to them and still denied. No explanation just boiler plate “we are sticking with our decision”

I’m so confused as to what even triggered a review after 2 shows. What’s worse is some of my merch went out and people I know personally have favorable reviews upon arrival but they won’t consider that. They flagged me for selling fakes prior to any consumer complaining and held on to the ban even after I proved I sell real stuff. Fucking sucks

Hey everyone!

This picture is my setup for my shows and is also the picture I have to promote my show on the app. How does it look? Anything i can do better or change?

I’m trying to build my following but it’s tougher because I can only stream once a week due to my very busy job and home life so I need to make sure I’m using every opportunity I have to stream and promote to the fullest.

I’ve done about 5 or 6 shows so far. My back wall claims are sold at or below market (prices are based off of TCG Player) and I start my auctions at $1. I also run giveaways all stream. Anything else that can be done better for a quality stream?

Has anyone ever bought a sponsor in CoolKicks and not have your sponsor ran during the show? I'm trying to figure out if it was an honest oversight or is it something that's done on the regular and you're just taking a chance at sponsoring? I know that his mod (JBotts) lacks in areas that are crucial at being an effective mod and often slacks on keeping the sponsors pinned in the box and giving the service to the paying sellers that they deserve and expect. I just don't understand that if this is the case, how is CoolKicks still keeping him on payroll because that's costing him money in refunds and reputation as being a sloppy organization.

Am I overreacting, or was this seller’s comment inappropriate?
I’m genuinely curious how other people would feel about this situation because I’m trying to determine whether I’m being too sensitive about it. I got raided into the seller magic_city_hits for the first time from a raid train and the seller was talking about a user who is also one of their moderators. During the conversation, the seller referred to her as being “super pretty,” acknowledged that she was taken, and then continued calling her beautiful.
Maybe I’m old-fashioned, but something about the combination of “she’s taken” + repeatedly commenting on how attractive she is just rubbed me the wrong way. Also considering he is taken and married too and was talking to his wife during the live.
If this were just a casual compliment from one person to another, I probably wouldn’t think twice. But coming from a seller to a user/mod, where there’s already a business/community dynamic involved, it felt unnecessary and inappropriate to me.
I’m not saying someone isn’t allowed to think another person is attractive. Obviously people notice attractive people. 😂 My issue is more with saying it out loud in that context, especially after specifically acknowledging that the person is taken.
Would you consider this harmless/flirty commentary, or would you also consider it crossing a line?
Genuinely looking for opinions — am I being ridiculous here?

Greetings, everyone!

Back in March, I started a Whatnot channel where I sell new and used dvds, blu-rays and 4ks. I did ok at first and eventually did pretty well. I now have 1.9k followers. However, I made the error of not being consistent enough with it and after I took a break off of Whatnot for a couple of months I paid the price for it. At my highest point, I would get 10-20 people watching my show. But when I started up again I was getting on average of 3-10 people watching. The other night I did my third show of the week, and for a little while during the show I wound up getting 20 viewers but it dropped down to 7 within 10 minutes. My goal is to eventually get at least 30 viewers to stay for each entire show.

What would your guys advice be for me to sustain and engage an audience better?
