Default Poll: Should Suspect Auctions be Outed?

Posted By: 1880nonsports

because the only way you are in the "C" category is if you're the one doing it. 99.9% certainty (and even 75%) of occurances of shill bidding seems unattainable as there are so many variables and so many unknowns. You can catch an idiot that exposes himself in a blatant manner - like 2 dealers that used the exact wording which included 2 of the same made-up words and same sold material. Other than that it's mere speculation and as mentioned before could be used in a self-serving manner relative to a card or seller. I think we lose as a group more than we gain by allowing the outing of suspected or imagined shilling. With 150,000,000+ registered on eBay ya doesn't have to go to a neighbor or a dummy account - like any auction anyone can ask someone else to place a bid.
