lots of people checking Ebay these days
 
Anyone else notice you click on an item that was just listed say 10-15 minutes ago and it will say "18 people have viewed this in the past hour".........used to be you'd see "2-3".........kind of funny how many people are bored and looking at Ebay these days.


May partially explain why Ebay has not had a Deal/Discount for sellers or Buyers in a couple months now.

Two factors are causing the reason. First, eBay listings are down, at least for the items in my watchlist. Normally, there are multiple listings for the cards that I watch. I’ve noticed that there are only a few examples listed. It appears the supply is down. I suspect that sellers fear this is a soft market and are trying to weather the storm.

Secondly, quarantined individuals can only watch so much tv before boredom sets into them. Old habits die hard. They shop or at least window browse.

The conclusion is that more eyes are now watching fewer cards.

I also have noticed people posting on Facebook they have been spending their stimulus check on hobby items. For what it’s worth.
