Interested Buyers?
Fairly new here, I have listings that eBay suggests I send an offer on, and when I do it shows the number of “interested buyers.†Some of these show, for example 14 views and zero watchers, so I’m wondering how a shopper is identified as “interested.â€
Also, I see “expired†offers I was never notified of. I suspect these are offers below my minimum, but it’s confusing to call them expired when they were never considered. Maybe I should just allow all offers, to prevent losing a sale for $1 ? Thanks!

Mentor3 years ago@rethink-co if someone is interested, they will watch.
don't know why u were not notified, did u scroll thru your ebay messages, or look next to the listed item(s)?
if u decide to allow all offers, be prepared for a possible influx of unrealistic offers

OP3 years agoI always check my messages, and the only offers shown are ones within my min offer setting. Interested does not = watching, as I mentioned, I still have interested buyers where there are no watchers.

The way I understand it, a watcher is just that - someone watching the item. An Interested Buyer is someone that may have had it come up in a search and was interested enough to click on it, perhaps more than once. Or some variation of that.
