Is there a way to get notified if an item is added to watch list?

I've recently learned, through this chat group about how you can send offers on items that people have on their watch list. So far it hasn't panned out in a sale, but I don't know how long ago some of these items were added to people's watch list.

 

From what I can see it would be very difficult for me to see when some item has just recently had a new watcher added. I've got over 24k items, granted not all of them are someone's watch list. I took my top 100 items that had the most watchers, and made individual offers on each item, as stated, it didn't translate into a sale on any of them.

 

We sell used auto parts, so I imagine on some of the items, if it had been something like 6 months, in all likely hood they had already purchased the item elsewhere, thereby my offer didn't mean anything to them.

 

So I was just curious as to whether there was a way to receive a notification, which would then allow me to check my item out, and see how much wiggle room I've got to adjust the price and send an offer.

Thanks in advance for all your time.

Unfortunately there is not. Here are the notifications that can be user configured.

You will just need to check periodically if the send offer button reappears, which would indicate that your item has new watchers since you cannot send the offer to the same watcher more than once.
