Seller's ID is beanershobbies out of Erie, PA. The bidder's ID is sjgolf4340. Never dealt with either before. |

Did you win the auction? Which is your username? Or are you the seller? The only victim of a "shill" would be a buyer. A seller could be the victim of someone playing games with eBay and running up auctions to get you to pay fees and then give you a negative feedback - that has happened to me. |

Nothing seemed out of ordinary with the seller so far as I could tell. It's the bid increments by the other bidder that kind of threw me. |

What made things look even more funny was that you have no feed back listed. Why do people need more then one eBay ID? I have never understood that - never had more then one myself - ever. I'm not trying to be critical of it - I just don't understand the benefit of it? |

I don't want to out an auction, but I'm watching an item that has a masked bidder (thanks again ebay) with 60 bid retractions the past 30 days. The suspected shill has bidded multiple times over the past few days, and the auction still has several days left. What concerns me is if a shill keeps bidding up an item only to retract their final high bid when it looks like there won't be anymore bids. Is this a common practice with shills? I can't think of any legitimate reason why a bidder would retract so many bids in 1 month. |

Adam, I dont see where anyone treated you badly, or put you under a microscope in this thread. Seems like everyone gave their opinion on whether they thought someone was shill bidding or not, and there was one question inquiring into why someone would need more then one ebay handle. Nothing there if you ask me. |
