But although they were near bankruptcy, it shouldn't mean that they were near bankrupt only one time. They could have had a history of it and with the giant treasure they bounced back and only tanked after losing trade with Regina's kingdom. That's my personal thoughts because if Evil Queen is before Tiny and shortly after The Shepherd then takes place, that would mean that Regina didn't know a glamour spell two to three years before the curse and that is incredulous to believe that Regina learned most of her magic within 3 years prior to the curse and did nothing beforehand.

Belle also didn't know of the Queen and Rumple and Regina became enemies, so that means it would have happened in a few short months later.

Regina going after Snow seems like a first effort type of thing and not to have happened years afterwards.
