BIN'S

[lukey9]

It really amazes me that buyers wait till the last few seconds to buy a BIN like it was an Auction. & then say they are so happy to win the item. It is listed for 30 days and you could buy it at the same price during that time. This is not only new buyers but some with high numbers of Feed Back but lately it has been slow so I will take any sales I can get.

Search options: "Time: ending soonest" -- lots of folk use that option.

Plus you have the watchers hoping the seller will lower the price...

And the watchers waiting until they have enough money to buy...

Yes I get them all the time, they're in a big rush to get questions etc answered etc before it is gone......everything I run is GTC.

Makes me chuckle more when said item has been running for years... although I'm a hoping that they buy it in the end!

I have noticed that most of my Fixed Price /Good Til Cancelled listings sell near the beginning or the end of their 30day cycle.

I guess those are people who use the Newly Listed/About to Close searches.

As long as they pay, I am not complaining.

They also get a "bump" in Best Match when they are new or ending soon.

Perhaps one of the biggest influences is the emails eBay sends out to watchers (or even just viewers) that an item they are watching (or previously viewed) is ending soon.
