I don't know about the shilling aspect...but I have won literally thousands of cards on ebay, have sniped and have been sniped...and for the first time ever while bidding on a 66 High the other night, I had the same thing..."Determining the Winner"...then moments later I had won. I was the sniper like you and won with my sniping bid and only saw that amount...so a little different than yours...but I have never seen the "Determining the Winner" page before...that was weird...
