I have a couple of questions for members that hopefully they can weigh in on and enlighten me about e-bay . I have several item on e-bay but I notice that there are some sellers that have the same items available for approx. $1 with free shipping international. I do not understand how this is possible as it costs approx. $6 USD for me to ship an item from Canada to USA for a single item. Also I have several items that are BIN but attract watchers. What is the advantage of being a watcher when it is not like the item can be snipped. Just wondering.

Thanks
John

Are the cheap sellers in China? Their shipping is heavily subsidised.

Some people (including me at times) watch BIN items so they can see if they get relisted at lower prices.

I watch BIN items, just to remind myself to buy, if money is suddenly sufficient... Smile

Yes I agree with your comments but if I list an item at $1 do people really think that I will reduce the price?
