Sad times

[Rednosty]

I think its time my Ebid days are over. Watches have become almost impossible to sell (Well quartz ones) Collectors are the only buyers now as everyone uses there mobile phone. So I'm going let my stuff run until they close.

You Have Outstanding Feedback!

That is sad, but I believe you about watches not selling as well these days. I read online not too long ago that Native American watch cuffs which were hugely popular in the 1960s and 70s are much harder to sell nowadays, not because they're not beautiful (they are), but because people simply don't wear watches the way they once did.

BTW: I wear a watch, but then again I'm probably atypical as I don't have a cellphone either and don't want one (one phone bill is enough for me, thanks).

You might want to consider branching out and selling different items in the jewelry area, or a different area entirely, as electronics, as most everyone is into gadgets these days.

Best wishes for many sales to all,

Must admit that I haven't worn a watch in nigh on 40 years; the position of the sun in the sky suffices for my lifestyle.

I suggested on another thread that the mobile had killed the watch for the masses. There is still a market for the expensive status watch but that is pretty much it.

Nope

I mean, are you registered elsewhere?

I've just bid on two of your watches.
I did find your store awkward to navigate: for instance, if you select "Gents quartz", and then search a make, you get all the ladies as well. No big deal, but I thought I'd say.

I suppose you combine postage?

Just confirming my suspicions really that watches are dead. (4 sold since I started 50% off which give me zero profit) Not exactly flooding in with sales.
