Views on certain items they sell suddenly increase x 10?

[tinascloset65]

I am a small scale reseller of clothing and household items, typically 3-5 items per week, lately if I am lucky. My items usually have 1-12 views within a week. In the past week or so, I have noticed the views for specific items, like ladies tops, go up to 120-125 within a week! I have one men's shirt that suddenly went over 400 views. While lots of views should be a good thing, I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this or if anyone knows what is happening? Btw, this has NOT led to an increase in sales. I called ebay and asked about this and was told nobody else has reported this issue and I should be happy to have lots of views. 

Thanks

There is also a post on the dotCOM sellers' board with a similar question.

Without any extra sales the poster suddenly started getting hundreds,even over a thousand, views.

Social media?

A glitch?

Neither views nor watchers seem to do anything for sales, so just take it as a morale booster.
