Long post, sorry. TL;DR at the bottom if you don’t want the whole thing.
Three new sellers appeared in the last six weeks with suspiciously similar site templates.
Prices moved noticeably this month across several vendors at once, which usually means something upstream changed.
Between payment processors dropping vendors and customs getting stricter, the whole thing feels less stable than it did a year ago.
Things I still don’t know: whether any of this is batch-specific, whether it holds outside the one case I looked at, and whether I’m reading the numbers right in the first place.
TL;DR: not sure what to believe about Payment processors dropping vendors again, running list, the sources people cite don’t say what they’re claimed to say, and I’d like to hear from anyone who’s actually looked at this properly.

Three anecdotes is not data. It is not nothing either, but it is not data.
