sunshine-i'll have items with 20-30 watchers on it, and maybe 1-5 people ending up bidding on it. always. sometimes i'll have 7-10 watchers over and over with NO bids....i always know that 75% of my watchers are either competitors, people who know me who are just nosy, or buyers who just hymm and haw...then those who seriously want to bid, but are somewhere else when the item has ended. i sometimes include in my descriptions to not wait till the last minute to bid because of this. i have people email after an item as ended, and if its sold, what am i supposed to do then?
its kind of annoying. its like having a store, and hundreds of people walking through it, and no one buying anything. i'm sure business owners can attest to it, and to that same feeling of frustration...:-(
