    Default Please do away with Views..

    eBid should do away with Showing views to Lookers !! It serves NO purpose for a looker to see how many views. This is an OLD system that was used to appease sellers back in 1998-2000
    It is useless and scares nowadaybiddersbuyers away.. PLEASE ebid listen to this message.
    Me knows

    Know buyer bidders etc can see the number of view a listing has on FeeBay there is usually a counter at least at the bottom of the listing.

    We should not do or copy what the opposition does. But do what is best for ebid or us, or what is new or a good idea.

    But I would like to see ebid stop showing the number of views my listings have had to buyers.

    Because I run 7 day auctions for 10 days, some of my listings get up to 200 views.
    This may put buyers off, they may think, this listing has had that many views so its not worth buying.

    But as buyers, we still need to see the number of views of course.

    Views on here are all but meaningless - I suspect many of them are webcrawlers anyway.

    Theres no plus in showing the views to buyers at all, only negatives, so would be a good thing to avoid if possible, especially so if most of the views are not even for real
