    I guess all are witnessing some kind of pain whether its in terms of sales or profit - but this is also true that most of the people will not agree that sales are down...

    ;)

    I've seen a smallish drop in sales of my main product line but the sales of add-on extras have virtually disappeared.

    In my opinion "NO" and if it has hit it is very little.

    To be honest. Receiving US$ at the moment is good for me. As the dollar is worth much more these days so I get more pound every time I earn.

    The present financial meltdown is deep enough to have affected majority of the people in one way or the other.

    Being active in the financial sector, it has had a cascading impact on my online businesses... :(
