Quick shipping, great transaction.

However, after reading the many threads about a potential for shill bidding, I can honestly say that I will never bid on one of this seller's auctions again, unless the seller attempts to clean this up. A seller can stop these actions if they want to-just a couple of ways:
1-No bids will be accepted with 25 feedback or less, unless pre-registered.
2-Choose your consignors carefully. As an auctioneer, you represent the consignor of an item. If there is reason to suspect manipulative or deceitful practices, you should not do business with said consignor. It can only hurt you in the long run.
3-More than "X" number (2,3,5?) bid retractions gets you banned from future bidding.
