# of WATCHERS on Listing Page NOT SHOWING on Desktop Access

All my Listings are Buy It Now and for about a month, the number of Watchers is not displaying on the Listing page. I have reported this 4 times to no avail.  This is an important sales feature...I am a buyer as well as a seller, and when I see a lot of watchers on an item, I feel pressure to hurry up and buy it before someone else snags it. Further, as a seller who does extensive research on her items, the number of watchers helps me to guage the popularity of a specific item. Also, I am able to see watchers on the ebay app (which I don't like btw as my store front/categories aren't visible), but not when I'm using my laptop which is what I generally use. I feel that this ONGOING ISSUE is hurting sales and needs to be resolved asap. MY LOSS is YOUR LOSS eBay , so get on the stick and get this fixed already, arrgh!!!

Repeatedly floating this to the top does nothing to get the attention of eBay and annoys the rest of us.

 

It is not a bug and therefore will be no fixes.

Per the blues in multiple other threads, this is not a bug, the
number of watchers has been removed from the item pages.
However, it does sometimes appear when there are 5+ or 10+
watchers with no real consistency.

Well apparently there IS a fix/resolution. After calling CS numerous times over the course of 6 months and logging about 8 hours of conversation/pleadings, the issue (for me anyway) is FINALLY FIXED, YAY!!! Today I can actually see the #s on items that have 5 or more Watchers...inhaling resolution and exhaling months of pent up frustration.
