eBay allows sellers to send offers to "interested buyers". My understanding of what eBay considers an "interested buyer" is either someone who has watched the item or someone who has viewed the item page multiple times.

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

He didnt send you an offer. He reduced price or sent offer to all interested parties. Meaning ppl who favorited or frequently viewed the item. Its nothing more than that
EBay seller here - yep I’m having listings pop up in my send offers to buyers list that say they have 0 watchers. Not sure what they are basing it on anymore it used to be watchers.
Interesting ... Eyeball linger time?
Like a pm offer from their listing or something to sell directly to you on the side?
Sellers can send offers to potential buyers. It happens to me all of the time.
How exactly can they tell I'm even looking at it without clicking anything at all? Like I know websites have that ability, but to what extent does eBay pass that info to sellers?
