Re: Sense???
I watch stuff all the time. Right now I've got 9 on my list, only two or three of which I might possibly maybe if i feel it bid on. One is a BIN and I have no intention of buying it. In most cases I'm just curious what they'll go for. Why?
Because I may own one like it.
Because it may be a fake.
Because it may be priced stupid high and I wanna see if anyone's crazy enough to pay.
Because it's a rad piece and I want to witness the bidding war that will inevitably take place in the final 90 seconds.
Because I once owned it.
Because I feel like it.
And once because the seller said he didn't want a bunch of people watching his stuff if they weren't gonna buy it.

Also, I watch things that I may need to research when I have more time. I pay no attention to my watch list, only my PayPal balance.
I go agree that high numbers on the watch list and low numbers on the bidder list can be frustrating.

Sometimes, I may be looking for an item and see an 'auction style listing' and a 'Buy It Now' listing. The BIN listing may close AFTER the Auction listing, but the BIN price is HIGHER than the current Auction price.
I will watch the BIN in case the auction item goes past my price range - or goes over what I can pick it up for on the BIN.

Re: Sense???
Appreciate all the feedback. Allows me to see the other sides. I usually don't go to the extents others do watching things. If I watch I generally am interested enough to obtain it. I never watch anything I feel is overpriced as I would have no intention of purchasing it.
Everybody's got their game I guess.
