Free money to be had by pressing a key on the computer or having a friend make a bid on an item you are selling? In an unregulated industry with zero oversight? Sure, just a myth. In auction houses in which consignors authenticate their own lots without divulging this to the buying public? In auction houses that sell game used material that they know to be false -- and they sell it anyway? Can't be. Too great a leap in faith, I suppose, to imagine that auction houses could do such a thing.
