eBay "Watchers"

Haven't sold on eBay in a while and I notice some new 'My eBay' stuff.

In particular, you can see how many watchers are on an item you're selling.

What's considered a good number? Had about 7 in 4 hours or so.

 

7 sounds okay.

I've had up to about 16 in the past for bike bits.

All you need is two, bidding against each other, after all.

 

You wusses. I had 73 on a TT I just sold. Mind you I had 26 on another auction and only had 1 bidder

 

Kind of like house auctions... The whole neighbourhood comes to watch but only one person bids... and they're the dummy bidder

 

We should have a competition.... who's had the most watchers?

Lee is current No. 1 with 73

anyone better that?

 

I had an average of 5 on a cbale of budget cables I've just sold....but hey, I just about got the asking price...

 

I had 26 for my preamp but only 1 bid.
For the other auction there were 7 watchers but no bidders.

 

The best Ihave in the last 60 days is 356.
i have hadmore than 1k a few times though.

Always provide a gallery picture, If the iitem is common use BOLD aswell.

It may cost £1.5 extra upfront, but what do you think the odds of someone being interested when 70 people see it compared to 700?

 

I had about 45 on some Kef Eggs,always get good money on them,had lots on a Kimber power cord too,but I think being in Spain puts people off as my winners are always from Spain or Italy'even though listed in the UK.But I've found don't get too excited over watchers.

 

there was an A&R A60 / SA60 from some bloke that didnt know what it was, about a week ago, and he cancelled the auction because he had 30 Emails from potetial bidders and couldn't be bothered with it!!!!!!!!!

 

had 90 on the Isolda
