I bought a few cards too....thanks for the OP for outing the auction!!
On one of the lots I won, I had put in a pre-bid of $170, but then ended up being able to watch and bid on the auction live. I watched as the lot opened at $30...no bids for a few seconds, then auctionbidders.com put in a bid of $120 on my behalf. I thought, okay, strong opening bid but I'll be happy to win at that price. Then, auctionbidders.com bid $140 and $150 (both on my behalf)!!!! Excuse me!! Umm, why did I bid up the item I was already winning????
No other bids. Three bids, all mine. I think I'll be making a phone call today!!!
Maybe they can make up for it by reducing my shipping from $38 down to $0!!! In essence, they found a way to charge me the 6% PA tax via shipping charges and "shill bidding" me vs. me!!
