I've been watching this lot for a while now...

It sold on 9/3 for $345...
http://www.ebay.com/itm/231063920867?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:VRI&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2661

It sold again last night for $215...
http://www.ebay.com/itm/231056938150?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

However, the seller has relisted it again this morning...

It's obvious that he is shilling his own auctions. Bidder 1***v is "johndenver1986" that won last nights auction. He also bid several times in the first auction. When you look at johndenver1986 feedback, he only has two and both are by the seller. Both the seller and johndenver1986 eBay accounts are registered in Michigan.

I've already sent him an email letting him know it was obvious shilling and he may have blocked me as a bidder by now, but if someone else want to bid this auction up to some ridiculous price, it would be kind of fun. :D

It didn't take long. Mr. 2 feedback is now the high bidder.

The seller has sold the same '58 Mantle All-Star three times in the last two months. Gotta be in cahoots with Mr Feedback (2).

This is actually amusing to watch as it unfolds.
