How many people do you get watching your item on e-bay?

I am very curious. Just started selling on e-bay. Thanks!

    on average at least 5-8 as it finishes for pcgs graded

  • Anywhere from 0 to maybe 8 or so for the not-so-special currency and coins I've been selling this year. Got some good stuff coming, might get more watchers.
  • I prefer to call them "squatters." They watch all the way until the auction ends! image
    It seems they are more curious than anything else.

    The most I have had is 49 watching an item.
    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

  • Hell...I don't even watch mine...

    I had a total of 117 at once watching a total of roughly a dozen coins. After the first six ended at roughly the same time, the total of watchers for the last six increased.

    I have found that the number of watchers doesn't mean a thing. I have had items finish with 8-10 watchers and not one snipper at the end. I have reached the concusion that buy it now is the way to go when selling on eBay.

    Depends on what it is I'm selling.

    Learn not to care who's watching. Learn who's buying.

    I've had from 0 to 20 depending on the item.

    I once had 125 people watching a single item.....tho like most of the above, its generlly 1-4 for low interest, 5-10 for moderate interest, and 11+ for higher interest....
