Default New Listing -> Automatic 1-2 views?

I noticed that sometimes when I list things within 1 second there are 1-2 views. There can't be a buyer that clicks on the listing that fast so it has to be Ebay. Has anyone else noticed this? Does this mean Ebay has started to monitor you?

I did this for a few second chance offers - right after I offered it there were 2 views for all of second chance listings.

Ebay is checking if the auction is in "good health" and has no problem and it is properly formatted.
It appens to all the listings.

I always thought that the two first views is just yourself when you look at your listing lol. Good to know.

I've noticed this for years. I was thinking either bots or just hot items.

More than likely you have listed safe, boring items.

There may not be an immediate 2nd view if the item is not flagged.

lol

And I've always noticed these things right away also. I just figured my items were hot. Or the system scans them for some reason to view something really quick to make sure it's not a VERO items or what not. Maybe a copy of another auction. That is against ebay rules.

These are most likely bots scanning the auctions.
