PWCC has already admitted to, and attempted to justify shill bidding.

That said... I think it's very possible that a legitimate "zero feedback" person was made aware of the auction, and was authorized to bid. It's not like a card of this magnitude is widely available, and a distinct possibility that a non-ebayer would want it. So while it does raise suspicion, I agree it's best we stick with discussing concrete evidence and facts, and what we KNOW to be true (which is a lot... and keeps mounting with no perceptible end in sight).
or maybe this is a ploy to show the fbi or others that zero feedback "buyers" are common ebay as a way to justify past shilling/no sale auctions?

My guess is this sale will not take place.

I hope you’re right because I would love to have it. But I don’t believe you are.

if you're that eager to throw half a mill at a most likely altered 52 topps mantle...I'm sure there'll be another coming down the pike real soon!

Indeed. You can pick up a PSA Auth one that looks about the same for, what, 95% less?

It’s not right now. It was sold on eBay. Maybe down the road.

It’s in the vault to be listed within the next few months.

Buyer is a high end investment vehicle guy who enjoys the flexibility and liquidity of our assets.

Lmao

Or had staff that knew how to snipe.
