spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 05/17/2021 8:37 pm I haven't noticed it happening lately (a lot of ebay emails go to my spam folder ) but I do recall getting messages like that regarding items I simply viewed. I had never "watched" them or had them in my cart. They can be a little pushy sometimes, but not any worse than anyplace else in my opinion.

Dearborn Moderator United States 98849 Posts	Posted 05/17/2021 8:42 pm I never put them in my cart at all. when I shop for coins, I search out many of the same coin and place them in my watch list, then I can narrow down which one I want to buy. Or if the one I want is an auction, I'll also look for a coin that closely matches the one I want. Then IF the bidding goes over the price of the other coin, I'll move on and buy the seconsd coin at the lesser price. I'll only have a purchase in my cart for only a few minutes then pay for it. I don't hold them in the cart At all. My method of buying is search, find, watch list, search find, watch list, then compare the 2 then cart, commit to buy, then pay. done. It's really not that hard.

jbuck Moderator United States 190135 Posts	Posted 05/18/2021 08:38 am I get at least one email a day about a watched item, usually to remind me it is about to end or that the seller is accepting offers. I have plenty of watched items, so it makes sense. However, I have never received a "complete your purchase" email like Dearborn.

trdhrdr007 Pillar of the Community United States 2335 Posts	Posted 05/18/2021 09:08 am Do you look at ebay on your phone? I use my phone for ebay research when I'm away from my computer. I've "bought" several items (some I looked at & some I didn't) when I put the phone back in my pocket without closing the app. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 98849 Posts	Posted 05/18/2021 09:17 am I will look for items on my phone, but I never use the phone to buy any items - I use the computer for that. as for app on my phone, I'm nutz about open apps, I close them every time I'm finished with them.
