Hi Guys,
I've been bidding on an item that has been removed before the end of the auction once before, and the guy relisted it. The guy has a 0 Feedback rate.... i thought it might have just been a newbee seller.....
Once again i bid on it, but was outbid in the last 5 minutes.... That was all good as i didn't want to pay that much anyway... but then i looked at the winners bidding details.... I dunno if i am reading this wrong, or there is shill bidding going on...
heres the details
 |
I read that as the winning bidder has only bid on this particular sellers items..... And bid on all 7 of his items?
Am i reading that info right? do you guys reckon it's shill bidding?
Thanks |
I've reported it sheep, but i do doubt that anything will happen with it!
As for shill bidding, i would consider it myself... well i need someone else to bid on my items first! 
I do love what Harley said about bidding on the items and making them pay the fees. I'm pretty sure that feebay would crack it when their fees aren't paid!

Same here!!!! Most of my items sell with only one bid (if they even sell at all), so I'd be wasting my time. As Harley said, it would be just my luck if I ended up winning all my own items. I think eBay would get quite sus with a sudden increase in cancellations.

Disgusting.
That seller will never get done for not as described. Have you checked his descriptions? On this listing, did you see what he added to the description? I bet it was the added info that made it sell for so much. So informative....

That was because what you described as occuring did not correspond to Shill Bidding. The only similarity your incident had to Shill Bidding was that it shared the same initials...
Why are you so disagreeable, am I not entitled to my opinion that I encountered SHILL BIDDING. What details do you know coming to the conclusion that it was not shill bidding. This case was investigated by Ebay. WHAT WAS THE OUTCOME if you think you know so much?

So what was the outcome?
Ebay will never tell you the outcome of any of their investigations.
Yes, you are entitled to your opinion but that does not mean that we all have to agree with you. Many of us did not agree that it was shill bidding.
