"malicious watchers"she even stated that she would report malicious watchers to ebay :rotfl:
that is brilliant..... that's so far beyond TSFE i don't know what to say! (and just to check i don't fall into the same category, you can't even see the identity of watchers anyway, can you?!)

If you come across any more of these listings you should post and get everyone here to watch it :rotfl:0 -
Sometimes if I've got multiple items to sell I'll end the auction early to sell to the highest bidder.
Saves on time, saves on listing fees compared with BIN
Also if you have less than 10 feedback you can't list BIN items. On my second account I had to sell around 30 items before getting a feedback of 100 -

You are quite right, the seller can't even see who is watching, just how many. Actually this seller was selling items in a categeory that I thought ebay would deem 'adult' and she had some stupid terms and conditions and I was watching them as I wondered how long the seller would stay on ebay before she got suspended.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Just bought an item from a seller last night, and his auction states that he will go to small claims court to remove a neg..."Beautiful young people are accidents of nature, But beautiful old people are works of art."

"SO PLS DO NOT WATCH UNLESS U ARE SERIOUSE AT BUYING THIS"
4 days and 6 hours left, so that's plenty of time to get everyone watching it! The seller will be getting all excited in anticipation of loads of bids but it probably won't get any at all. :rotfl:

Me too..you have to love this seller though, all that large print 'terms and conditions' and obviously flogging stuff he hasn't been able to sell himself. Plus the offer to sell the trailer 'off ebay'. I'm surprised he's lasted this long.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.
