Ebay Auction Watchers Vs. Anti-Watchers
These days it seems like the vast majority of ebay watchers are anti-watchers. An anti-watcher is someone who watches an item with no intention of bidding and is hoping it doesn't sell probably so you lower the price.
Here are 2 examples: 1) A seller has an item up for auction with a 99.95 minimum bid I ask him if he'd take less. He says he has 16 watchers and if no-one bids he'd consider it. Not 1 of the 16 watchers bid. 2) I had a Mantle item for auction with a $115.00 MB. Someone offers me $170 if I sell it to him now, but I tell him I've got 8 watchers and I just listed the item today so I don't take his offer. He ends up being the only bidder of the 8 watchers and I only end up with the MB of $115 when I could have accepted his offer of $170. It used to be that at least 50% of "watchers" on an item end up bidding. Now most watchers are anti-watchers. Last edited by mannequin1; 07-01-2024 at 07:08 PM.
