People who are watching the item, to keep an eye on it, potential buyers in theory.

The same as someone circling an ad in the paper. sort of

tell him you'd end the auction early for x amount, higher than you've set the reserve.

I bought two punto's last year for around 1k each and sold them for £1600 each.

Then bought a mitsubishi charisma for £750, left £350 in the auction toilets, and ended up selling the charisma for £650 for a quick sale.

Needless to say that ended my auction thrills.
