Default Live Auction: Standard Biscuit Cobb - Shill Bidding?

Posted By: Matt

"i think this should be a lesson for outing auctions BEFORE they are over...people need to be MORE selective doing it."

If anything, I think this supports the view that outing a live auction of a vintage card that is listed in the correct category has absolutely 0 effect on the auction outcome since there was nothing "outed" as several have already said. We can all speculate about more eyes seeing the auction, etc. but here we have an actual case where it happened and none of the theoretical came into play.

I would hope others would do the same as I did in the future, if they have strong suspicion of something fishy in an auction. I'd like to know of any potential pitfalls when bidding on something.
