I don't remember many other AH owners discussing shilling and what they try to do to stop it, other than Brent, and I feel he does deserve some credit for that at least.

Many houses have caught a great deal of flack here over the years when record prices were being achieved over and over. Those raising the issue did so simply based on the final price of the auctions and had nothing else to go on.
There is far more for us to see with auctions conducted on eBay, in spite of ebay putting bidders at a great disadvantage by blocking IDs and removing the ability to search the buying history of a user. PWCC is also not the only eBay consignment seller who has been questioned either.
