How many viewers on eBay at any given time?

Ebay make a big thing of saying there are 50,000,000 item up on eBay - an exact number? (roll eyes), but more interesting to know would be how many people in  this country view or buy on eBay on a daily basis - 3,000,000 5,000,000 or what?

Took a bit of time but I have just completed the count....

As of 10:54 there are 49,897,278 items for sale.....  and that is an exact number.... (roll eyes)...

Thank you, you're missing the point though - not how many items are there for sale, but how many people tune  in to eBay on a daily basis to look or buy?  I know I do, so by my reconing there must be at least ten others!

As a rough guess to this question, I'm gonna say probably many thousands across the UK & abroad 🙂

Not hundreds of thousands though?  Somebody must know the answer - one of the moderators or somebody.  It would be interesting to know, so that you can then work out the best time/day to advertise to get maximum exposure.  I'm surprise eBay don't plug it: "50,000 people sought items on eBay over the weekend!"  It strikes me the only time more people come onto eBays is when there is a "free weekend."
