what's the most watchers you have ever had?

[Bradsplit]

I currently have 24, I am quite pleased with this but I am ware from previous experience that this doesn't translate into a high sale price

what is the most watched thing you ever had?

60+ for Pink tickets.

They went for a bloody fortune in the end.

ooh 60 is A* territory!

66 watchers on a week 6 morrisons Christmas voucher haha

and?

2500 (honest!)
For a bunk bed that had a witty description and had been linked to on a few forums.
It sold for 64 quid and the buyer was a pita who brought her kid along to collect.

74, for a second hand Internet router, fully functioning though. Was £120 brand new on amazon, went for £94 plus shipping. I was stunned. DH was laughing himself silly over it as we got it for nothing when the cable company left it with us despite having one when there was a fault on the line.

Nothing else has come close, a few in the 20-somethings for some rare gaming figures of DHs. Double figures is generally a good sign!

Anyone had loads of watchers but then not sold the item?

When I moved into my current house the first time, we explored the loft only to find a box of old console games (snes/master system etc) I called the previous occupants who rather rudely told me to just bin anything we found be uses it's just junk they couldn't be bothered to take

I stuck the lot on eBay, had 174 watchers and they went for £566!

*not that I dislike kids of course.
I was annoyed that she didn't think a child would be more of a hinderance when moving the heavy pine bed.

Plus she messaged a few times after the sale to try and flirt with my exoh (Cheeky cow) but sadly for her it was me who did the ad and answered the questions posing as a bloke.

Watchers didn't equal a high price for me

and what?

what did it go for

oh sorry £6.49. I saw so many on there and thought I ma as well put mine on as it was no use to me. Did make me giggle going for that much

*may

75 watchers on a stunning gold and cream formal suit for a baby boy (DS wore it for his christening). We sold it for more than we paid for it but not mega bucks.

We had over 120 watchers when we sold our Furreal butterscotch pony , and it went for nearly as much as we had paid for it new.

I had 27 watchers the other week for a dress I bought from Dorothy Perkins in the sale last year for £17. It sold for £19.58 and I'd wore it a few times, too.

Probably not the highest number of watchers I've ever had, but I was really surprised it attracted so much interest. I only expected it to go for a couple of quid :)

30 on each of two bikes. One had one bid in the end, and the other one no bids (though we sold privately instead).

We live back end of nowhere so both were collection only; the winning bidder drove 300 miles roundtrip to collect.

Also maybe 30+ watchers on a bike trailer that THEN was rejected by buyer costing me £61. I later resold it off ebay, collection only, for £75.

I think days of mega watchers are over though for me because of new Cassini system. I'm lucky to sell anything for a price I can stomach.

Just today, I had 108 watchers on a pair of lovely Little White Company pyjamas. They sold for £1.28. Ffs!

One multi size listing that I've had running since June has 162 watchers on 3022 views.
It's for a longline bra and I guess the watchers are seeing if I restock the sold out sizes. Sadly I can't as the style is discontinued.

What's Cassini

Currently got 48 watchers on my North Face coat. The trick is to always start bidding at 99p to entice them in!

Argh. Can't face the fear I'll forget to get someone to up it. Note I've only done it once. Was terrified

What's Cassini? Not heard that one. I won't start anything at 99p now as if that's all it goes for, my share is not worth the effort listing. I save it all for a free listing weekend (another one coming up shortly I believe) and put it on higher, then if it doesn't sell or I don't think it's worth relisting in a few weeks, charity bag. I can't be doing with the faux bidding, risky.

Cassini = the search engine that Ebay uses (custom written) to return results for buyer searches. It's how they decide "Best Match."

Things that Cassini favours:
Buy-it-nows, pictures in focus with white backgrounds, new listings, titles that match existing indexing, listings from sellers with no performance issues, listings from sellers with high conversion rates, low prices, ending soon. The exact algorithm isn't published.

lljkk I think you might be able to bump up your place if you fill in all of the description details listed for the item. Any that are not applicable I now put n/a rather than leave blank and the rest I now fill - so all measurements asked for, fabric details etc. I don't know for sure but it is a hunch based on noticing my items being on first page after starting to do this.

had 370 odd for a well used tempur mattress , slept on it for 8yrs and sold it for £360!
