Does it mean anything?

I have this really beautiful and totally 100% authentic BALENCIAGA Motorcycle City Bag

It is listed for $950 or $1000 Buy It Now. I'm surprised that it wasn't grabbed up at the BIN price because it is in excellent condition, the color is a discontinued color, it is gorgeous and it is a great value. BUT it wasn't - BUT there are 27 people watching it.

What does that mean?

Ebay shows the seller how many people are watching each of the items that are up for sale. This is a helpful thing. Although it is not always ALL TELLING. You can have ZERO people watching your item and still it can be sold at the very last minute of the auction. My assumption when that happens is that the person who bought it has bought it with AUCTION SNIPER or that they were able to get in there themselves and bid at the last second. Very rarely when you have over 10 people watching does the item NOT get sold. Therefore it's nice being able to see that many people are watching your item and that there is a good chance that the auction will end with a sale.

The strangest thing that has happened though was when I had a Marc Jacobs handbag up for sale and 19 people were watching it! 19 - that's a lot of people - AND then in the end it did NOT get sold. That was unusual. The bag did get sold the next time I listed it.

There are 27 people watching the BALENCIAGA bag - if you were willing to pay $950 for the bag - wouldn't you just BUY IT NOW for $1000? I certainly would. It will be curious to see what happens.

Also interesting will be the little Rosenthal vase - It started at $1.00 and is now at $168.50 - there are 37 people watching it. Can't wait to see how it ends.....
