Works like this - I look at a buy it now, don't save it to my watchlist, obviously don't buy it. Shortly after, sometimes a day or two, sometimes only hours later, I'll get a seller's offer. Usually 10% or 20% off, but the best I've seen so far is 47% off. They must send it to everyone who views the item, and they'll give you a set time, usually 48 hours, to accept (buy it), counter-offer, or decline the offer. I think since Christmas, I've had about 5 or 6 offers sent. Maybe I need to get off eBay.
Interesting.

Are you sure you didn't have it on your watch list?

Same experience here except only when I hit the "watch this item" button.

In fact - I'm inclined now to go that route on everything......and then wait a day to see if I get a reduced price offer.
