I used to drop prices every Sunday like clockwork — anything older than two weeks, knock 10% off, send the notifications, sit back and watch nothing happen. The problem isn't that price drops don't work. The problem is that your repeat buyers learn the rhythm.
Why pay full price on Monday if Sunday's discount is coming? You've made yourself a clearance brand without meaning to. The fix: list it right the first time.
Algorithm-tuned title, fields filled, price set against actual sold comparables — not what you wish it sold for. VintSnap does that part. Then leave the listing alone.

The ones priced correctly on day one shouldn't need a rescue mission on day fifteen.
