I see.
Our problem was with getting them indexed. We have over 15,000 pages which created a lot of challenges when we moved over 1/3 of them.
Getting rankings back seemed like it just takes some time. Our experience has been a day or two of good rankings followed by a month or two of reduced rankings, then a general climbing action and ending up close to where we were before.
Keep in mind that your competitors are probably working to improve their site, so while you were out of the rankings they probably improved their site to make it harder for you to climb back up. Also, they've had some recent algorithm changes that have shaken up quite a few SERPs in many industries. It may be time to make some changes to those pages.
In many cases, time is the best medicine for an ill search ranking. If it is costing you a lot of money in lost sales then some serious link building may be in order - or resort to PPC. Since they don't update their index as regular as some other engines, it may take a while.
