what does everyone make if that?
-
They probably created a bunch of dummy accounts to make their vendor page look better. I'd be cautious about buying from vendors like that, there are plenty of reliable vendors with a well established transaction history. Number of fans isn't a real good indicator of vendor quality anyway, their feedback is what you need to look at.

I don't think anyone will waste so much time making dummy accounts just to become fan.
If they make dummy accounts i m sure they ll make dummy transactions too.
Buyers become "fans" usually to have them on their watchlist on their main page and check them out occasionally. I have more "favourite" vendors than I have bought from actually.
-
I "fan" any vendor that I am thinking of using because it puts their vendor link on my main page so I don't have to search for them.
-
It doesn't mean anything. If anything a vendor would fake transactions.
-
i see know thanks for the info
-
I also have a bunch of vendors who I become a fan of. It is a lot easier than bookmarking a listing you might be interested in buying in the future When I go back to my bookmarks most of them no longer work and I have to go through and delete them all.
-
I bookmark vendors i have researched & want to buy from. the search feature is really slow & useless
-
I have numerous vendors on my favorites that I have not made a purchase from. I find it difficult to search for vendors at times. Flavriting vendors is almost habit as I can go back to look at their offerings quickly.
-
hopefully the vendors are not selling to theses people off sr, adding favorites to see products and exchanging off sr. that is a no no .

This.
It may even be a vendor I just wanna "keep an eye on"
-
Yip, I fan quite a few new vendors just so i can keep an eye on them :)
