Don't you hate when you have 5 or 6 watchers and then your record is "not sold"?Go watch someone else's records, suckaaaaaaaaaaaaas! Don't create expectations on me !

    Guilty! Also, sometimes you just forget to get back to it. I've done that! If you liked your starting price offer it to one of the watcher and see if they bite. I've forgot about my watch list and when I see no one else bid I'm slapping myself!

    5 or 6 doesn't seem like that many people to me, just like casual interest, not big demand.

    I've seen records get like 40 views and not sell, it all depends.

    "40 views" as in counter's views or 40 watchers???????

    If I'd have 40 watchers and then get a "not sold" I'd hit my head with my keyboard till I pass out

    i've had auctions with like 40 watchers, 200ish views, no bids!!

    it's like everybody's waiting around, watching for one person to jump into the pool...or get on the dance floor...or pick your metaphor...

    Last time I checked, it wasn't possible to communicate with or even see the users watching your items. Has this changed?

    the one that really pisses me off is i have like 8 viewers and then the next day it is down to 6. i never delete the watched item until it finishes. i don't see why people do it. is it a subliminal diss to me ?
