Anyone else with a travel site have poor results all of a sudden?

Since about 4 days my sales have dropped by a big amount and i am still spending the same on adwords. Checked as much as I can and from my side all seems to be in good working order, no new changes lately but just business slowed down by such a big % that I am a bit worried now as I havent experiences this before. Any ideas anyone?

Me thinks you are victim of your own post you started, about the double/tripple/quattro ads from our Turkish friend.
First of all your ads where pushed to the second page, by all off his ads. Probably because of all the attention your thread created, ppl started clicking on the ads of the first 2 pages to see who was/is advertising.
All those clicks where no real customers, hence conversion drops.
Secondly the real customers where fully sucked away by your Turkish friend, so again, less real sales are adding up towards the bottomline. Now (hopefully)he/she is gone for good, but its weekend... always slow, as you probably know.
