If you are selling an item and you have 12 watchers....

[DumbledoresGirl]

what do you reckon are the chances that some of them will actually bid?

maybe....or they are just watching to see how much it went for. How many days have u got left?

What is the item. If it's a packet of mouldy crackers, no.

It is a very good condition rainbows uniform so I think there should be some interest (mouldy crackers lol!) I am trying to buy Brownies items and they go for ridiculous prices so I think the watchers on the Rainbow uniform are probably serious. I just wish they would get on and bid! There are just under 2 days to go.

Ahh, but really serious bidders only bid in last 24 hours ime. You should be fine!

wouldnt worry will definetly go, I tend to wait until last couple of hours and most things I sell go up in last couple of hours.

I only ever bid in the last hour - you should be fine

Thanks for reassurance girls. I was stunned that someone put in a bid on the very first day - thought that was odd to bid so quickly - but I have sat and watched the number of watchers go steadily up all week and no-one is cracking yet!

Why is it that the things I want to buy go out of my price range before I even get to bid but the things I sell are bought for a song?

How did it go? I had 40+ watchers on a boys coat I had listed last week (which reminds me I need to relist) but none of them bought it!.

Some some things recently and has no bids on most until last 24 hours despite several watchers.

Auction not finished yet Saltire - finishes in about 24 hours. I have had one bid on it all week but was ridiculously happy last night when I checked the item just before going to bed and found someone had literally just bid! Went to bed smiling, sad soul that I am! There has been another bid today too. Still 12 watchers but I imagine most will consider it too expensive now.

I have 75 watchers at the moment, auction finnishing in 4 days. I better sell for the price I want!

Up til now I always found that having 8 watchers was really good, and that usually nearly guaranteed a sale. I think you will be ok.

Good grief SSN, what are you selling?

My item is up to £11.50 and there are now 13 watchers and still over 10 hours to go. I am satisfied as I only wanted £10 for the item anyway!

This is fun! I wish my other items were doing as well.

Dumbledoresgirl (how do you shorten that?)

Well done for getting a price higher than expected.

I was shocked once I sold a baby bouncer for £35 + postage, never thought it would fetch that much. But it was luxurious, in excellent condition, with black and white zebra pattern. When I looked at buyers other purchases they had ONLY bought black and white baby items, preferably with zebra pattern! That is why ebay is so great!

I am selling my ..... campervan.

Most people shorten my name to DG.

Wow, a campervan! In which case, £75 would be a snip! Is it one of those hippy VW ones?

Oh sorry, I am complete fool! You said 75 watchers not selling it for £75. I am sooooooooooo

How much are you hoping to get for it?

Just checked out the world of campervan sales on ebay. Amazing! Virtually ever single auction has at least one bid. It must be a really competitive way to sell your vehicle.

I am hoping to get between 6-8 k. But I have a reserve on it, current bid is at 1.750, but with 76 watching now and still a few days to go i am hoping I will get somewhere. I am also advertising it on Autotrader, so we will see.
