What\'s the point of.........

........\"watching\" listings in my eBay shop?
They aren\'t auctions so the price aint gonna change, or a bidding war break out
I\'ve got 2 \'watchers\' and I\'m like ?????????
You don\'t stand in the aisles at Woolies staring at the stuff on the shelves (well maybe for a few minutes ) & you get booted out (ok asked to leave) of a GW store if you stand still too long lol

I have no idea either... I wonder the same thing about watchers of \"Buy it Now\" auctions too. Are they just waitng to see if somebody else buys it?

People are wierd.

It is a way to get to your store quickly with out having to save you as a favorite store.

You\'re saying this in a way that makes me believe you have tried this personally! lol

 

[Dragonsreach]

How about keeping an eye on potential sales targets and prices for buyers?

Hehe. Might be just a reminder, a bookmark of sorts. I\'ve done that sort of thing myself.

No, I used to be the one doing the booting/asking (dependant on age, time of day, familiarity) lol

Ah! hadn\'t thought of that one

maybe they have no cash and it\'s an easy way to remember the piece so they can go back once they\'ve sold enough bodily fluids to afford them

I have done this too, usually when I can\'t save the store as a favorite.

I do that for a couple reasons, either it\'s something I thought I wanted but wanted to think about it, or it\'s something I just thought was cool and wanted to keep a reference, or it\'s something I would buy in the future OR most often I\'m comparing prices/products. It\'s alot easier to just watch all the decent priced items and review it a bit closer once you\'ve weeded out the ones that bend you over on shipping or are on the other side of the world, dont have good feedback etc.
