When it comes to eBay just answer the questions, even if they are in the description.  It shows that you are on top of your auction.  Don't worry about of all those watchers only one can actually win; the one who puts in the biggest number.  The most movement in the price will come with less than 10 minutes left.  I too have bought and sold plenty on eBay and the big fish wait until the end.

As I state several days ago I am selling my 86 Westy (see: www.carboncow.com)

I have sold quite a bit personally including three cars, two jet ski
and boat. I have NEVER seen anything like this before from interested
people...including expert Vw owners who cannot stand NOT to hold their
tongue and opinion!

As of today two days into a 10 day auction I have 64 "watchers" on the
ebay list and have received over 32 questions (or comments!) including
a few from thesamba.com...

with that much interest how could one not get top dollar! but we'll
have to wait and see and I think 90% of those interested are lurkers!

one thing I have learned from this experience is people cannot read
detailed copy well, are rude with opinions when they have no desire to
buy and those who have a desire to buy are willing to offer
ridiculously low money hoping a personal reason will help sway
opinion...

...what a trip!
