Ending listings and relisting will normally just put them right back where they were. Sometimes ending the listing and then creating a brand new listing will work. My guess would be that since the 6 new listings are at the bottom so will your others if you end and start fresh.
Your options are to either wait it out or stop selling on eBay entirely. Unfortunately they control this mystical algorithm that no ones knows anything about. It is possible that the delayed shipping caused the issue or check your DSRs and see if someone left you some bad ones.
If it makes you feel any better I had the same thing happen to me 2 weeks before Christmas. I went from the cheapest and the top of best match to the very bottom on every product. I called everyone I could find a number to and nothing. My sales went from 150 items a day to 30. I languished at the bottom of the "best match" while people with 95% positive were at the top. People with no feedback or horrible feedback got all the sales while I got the leftovers. It went back to normal about 10 days after Christmas. That was the tipping point, the last straw. I set up my own website. I am going to completely stop selling on eBay entirely within the next couple of weeks. I've got 1 site up and running and am selling $2,000-$3,000 a day. I am in the process of setting up another site for a totally separate category. I should have that site running within the next week. If everything goes as planned I should be able to average 5k a day in sales within the next couple months.
A little secret I've learned,you can sell for much higher margins on your own site than you ever can on eBay, and you control your own destiny.
but isnt it much easier to drive traffic to ebay vs ur own site?
