    The most watchers I've had on any item I've sold is 31... I know of others that have several hundred!

    I had 47 watchers on a rare Engelhard 2 ounce gold bullion bar last year. Most I have ever had.

    watchers= people on ebay who are watching your auctions and show up as a number of watchers (individual people) in your "watchers column on ebay.

    right now i have 338 more than any other time i've auctioned.


    I wonder ...(as many probably do).... how many are truly interested ...and are poised to bid...vs. people who are just interested in a market report?

    I agree! I don't get the whole "on fewer than 60 auctions" part

    I think it also depends on if the start level is low or high


    If started at $1 and worth much more, potential snipers

    If started at $200 and worth $100, people curious if you catch a sucker

    I use my watch tool to watch items that I plan on bidding on and also

    to look at items that I have so I can see if they're worth anything special.

    Like 14. But I've only listed 3 items for sale over 5 years.

    If were talking for 1 auction only, it was 34.

    I was throwing just a number of auctions out there....

    some ebayers sell only 5 or 10 items at a time ...so their "watchers" on 10 items wouldn't compare to an ebayer that posts up 450 auctions.

    so i used "60" as a reference point.... get it?

    I've had as many as 32 or so on a single auction, though on average I only get between 8 and 12.

    I had 39 on a low grade 1877 IHC that I started at 1c with NR. Predictably, once the auction got into the realm of a reasonable price for the coin, about half of those watchers dropped out.

    I had 29 (briefly) on one item last week, before it stablized at 28. I think that's as high as I've had.
