Default Babe Ruth Headin Home cards -Potential Shill

Posted By: Rhett Yeakley

Was watching this item on ebay tonight and noticed what appears to be some shady bidding going on. If I am wrong and everything is on the up and up, I will appologize, but I don't think I will have to. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=016&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=260057793783&rd=1&rd=1

Anyways, if you look at the bidder list, you get a guy funghoul710 who has bid several times at even dollar amounts (always a red flag). But when you click on their feedback, they have accumulated feedback from a grand total of 10 ebay users since 2001, and one of those happens to be the seller of the Babe Ruth cards (Jeff1027). Also, if you type in their name to see what else they have bid on in the last 30 days, you get not a single item. Also, this "bidder" has not really been active on ebay since 2003. All this just seems a little fishy to me. Just wanted to see what others thought.
