I watch many things I never bid on, like when I am interested in a item and start looking I will add all the items I am interested in to my watch list and then go through that to work out which one is the best value for money, seller location, seller feedback, best item description with the least terms & conditions and then buy, the rejected items remain in my watch list untill ebay removes them;-)

If a seller re lists that can be a very long time   😉
