Watch Auctions Before You Bid

Once you find an auction you're interested in, you don't have to bid immediately. Instead, you can add this item to your watch list and track the status on your My eBay page—and save your bidding until later in the auction. (See Secret #393 for more about last-minute bidding.)

To watch an item, click the Watch This Item link at the top of the item listing page. The item will now be tracked in the Items I'm Watching section of the My eBay Bidding Watching page. Go there to keep up-to-date on the auction's status.
