First off, let me say I have barely ever used eBay over the years. Maybe a dozen or two times. Selling off some old computer parts, and buying Behind the Music DVD's is about it.
That said, is there some reasons to have 5/10/20 'watchers' and not bid until the last possible second, or wait until auction expires and then contact the seller privately?
I would think that this would be frustrating to wait until the last possible second, or run the risk of losing something you want. But I honestly have not done enough of these online auction things to really understand the logic.
When I want something, I just buy it.
