Milgauss ebay hard to beleive

There is one ebay seller selling a MILGAUSS GV for 9995.00 This seller has (594) operations in ebay with 100 % positive,watch is in CT ,auction ends in 1 day and 10 hours,the item has o bid

There is another ebay seller with same Milgauss for 9900.00 so far with 3 bids,this seller has (131) operations with 98.6 % positive,watch is in Houston Texas,auction ends in 4 days and 13 hours
Can anybody explain me why the first Milgauus GV does not have any bids even when the difference is only 100.00? and the one with 0 bid finish the auction 3 days before? and the one with o bid has 100 % positive.The conclusion I have made is that maybe the 3 persons (buyers) who are bidding are from Houston or nearby and they want to see the watch before paying the money,I NEED TO KNO WHAT ELSE COUILD IT BE? THank you

Um because the latter is cheaper, thus more people bid on it. ?? Both sellers are legit.

$100 is $100. Now if the about-to-expire auction was lower, then it would be weird, but I see absolutely nothing out of the ordinary with this.

....both sellers are legit. Sometimes there is simply NO explanation.

many people including me wait for the last minute bidding that they put their bid if they find that the bidding price is what they were expecting..
so there is no exact answer or explanation....

It could be the opening bid price. I noticed the one with 3 bids started out cheaper at $8000.

Totally. An ebay auction's price means very little until the last hour or minutes. Rather than submit an early bid, many folks will lurk and submit bids in the last few minutes. It was by no small happenstance that I got my Expy II for $2800, I lurked and pounced well.
