Hi all,would appreciate some advice from regular posters.
I have been a bit quiet lately but found some cricket gear for junior,junior tuck& bid accordingly.
Then did my bumbling research on seller.
Following are some items which show very interesting bidding & sale patterns.
111412586623
111406238582
111409098681
111406236235
111410064735
If one looks at completed listings & bidding history something is not kosher.
In the past I have poo pooed "shill bidding" alarmists but this looks like a duck & quacks like a duck!
Interestingly the seller posted on the boards on 15.07.14.with regard to not obtaining the price he would have liked.
Also during bidding sent a message asking what my highest bid would be & quoting the figure he was looking for.
I must have too much time on my handsl lately but would appreciate any input.

After reading this
and then checking his seller feedback (singular) I reckon, he just keeps
relisting everything to get more money and is not honouring any of the sales.
Hate to be one of his buyers, going through all the trouble of an auction
That's my take on it anyway

Thanks stawka,
The interesting thing is the bidder with 0 f/back & 100% activity with the seller who has "bought" items & is now bidding multiple times on current listings!

If you feel strongly enough about it, then report it.
Whatever he's doing, ebay doesn't need it
Any wonder the 'every now and then buyer' gets ticked off

So one at least of those listings is for an iPhone.
I'm not sure how that relates to kid's cricket gear, but I'm sure there are plenty of members who will enlighten me.
