The thing about it though is that this bidder is winning a lot of the auctions that are put up by the seller. If he was shill bidding, wouldn't he back off and not lead/win so many auctions? I have seen some people with a boatload of feedback from one person before in the world of baseball cards. Back in the day when communication was easy between fellow members, you could talk to the people. It was simply a matter of the seller having what they wanted and trusting the seller.

I won a large lot of '52 Topps on ebay a few years back and split it up. I would say a good 40-50% of the cards went to one bidder in particular. He liked the items and trusted me. That could be all. I have a hard time believing someone is shill bidding when they keep winning so many of the auctions.

Change your socks, drink water, and drive on.
