    Watching on Ebay

    I know that most bidders now days prefer to put an item that they may want to bid on under their watch list. My question as a seller, what is the most number of watchers you have ever had on a single auction item? I currently have an item that ends tonight that has 61 people watching it.

    I don't recall the most watchers I've had but I just love it when there a lot of people watching an item and it doesn't sell!

      The largest number of watchers I think I have ever received has been in the low 30s. 61 is outstanding!

        The most I had was around 160 watchers.

        But as the other member said it doesn't get any better then having a lot of people watching and not one bid lol lol

          61 people watch, that must have been one hot item. Unless it was the Braun jock strap, bet that bad boy had a few watchers that were not planning on bidding. I know I was one of them

              I frequently watch things on which I have no intention of bidding...either because the beginning bid price is so high that I want to see whether it sells at all, or because it's something really silly or unusual - same reason - or because it's something that I already have, and I want to compare what it finally goes for with what I paid.

              Then there are the things I'm watching on which I do intend to bid, and then zone out on, and the auction ends while I'm in the middle of watching Law & Order.

                  30 seems about right - I've only had two items ever hit that mark - 60+ watchers is incredible

                        I thought the jersey would close between $750-$1,000 so yeah I'm pleased with the closing price especially with what I had in the jersey.
