Bidding

[shazza67_2008]

I am currently bidding on an item on ebay

I have a max bid set there seems to be a bidder in battle with me on this item

The auction has bidder privacy on it

Ok so I click on bids to see who is bidding and comes up

0****0 (0)

I'm ok with that

I happen to take a look at sellers other items

They have one other auction

So I click on bids again and I see the same person again in the bidding

Could this be coinsodence or may be seller has some one on his side or another account maybe

just seems very fishy to me

I often bid on more than one listing from a seller.  It is a great way to save on postage.

Put the listing title in a post here on this thread and we can take a look (just the title, not the seller ID or listing number)

Two totally different kind of items, seems kinda strange, I wouldn't risk it.

I agree, items are not related and both are nibble bids using a new account.

If it was me, I would report both items for shilling and let ebay have a look.

Thanks guys Ihad an email from the seller as I did mention my concern to him to see what sort of responce

He told me to go for it and that he had both Items advertised on FB

I thought only friends and family are the the people that would see the items

THOUGHTS ????

eek, don't understand the answer - but still would not risk it

This email reply from seller

yeah go for it, I'm advertising them both on Facebook so wouldn't be surprised if there is someone bidding on both :).
