I have spent the past 4 and a half hours doing in depth research and have turned up with no issues with the sites traffic, nor have sales been lower than previous months.
In fact sales as a whole are up compared to October to date and way up compared to October 2010.

Now while digging deeper into studios that had inconsistent sales I discovered issues like....
- not utilizing their content when updating
- lack of using tools like the "future activation" tool to set updates rather than posting them all in one day once a week
- no regular updates
- using c4smembers.com as content on their clips4sale studio
- no content at all

It is a competitive market on C4S with new studios opening daily which in turn means that consumers have more to choose from.

I'd like to suggest to those that are interested, to consider some of the following pointers in effort to increase your sales
- Update at least once a day
- Take advantage of tools like the future activation feature where you can set content to go live months in advance if you wished
- Consider promoting your studio and driving your own source of traffic via twitter, facebook, forums and blogs (be sure not to spam sources though or they'll ban you)
- Maybe even go as far as doing some paid advertising if you can afford to invest money to make more money (I'd advise hiring a professional to do the buying and optimizing though)

So with that all said, regrettably there is no issue on C4S end with sales or traffic so if you wish for me to dig in and review your studios please email me at jo @ clips4sale.com and I will take a look at your stores and try to help you get back those sales that have apparently decreased for you.

Thanks
