An easy way to report a shill on ebay

[Archive]

Folks, they have virtually hidden the shillers but have made it a tad easier to report so let's BOMB them with shill reports so that they get the hint! Please at least make sure you have some way of suspecting the seller. Please do not just report any auction.

Here are the directions:

while in a listing that you suspect is being shilled:

At the bottom of the listing click 'report this item'
then select 'Fraudulent listings'
then select 'Seller is using other accounts to inflate item price(Shill Bidding)'
then select 'continue'

the bidder on this item is one of the "good guys". He is NOT a shill.

and would love to hear the telephone complaint by the bad-seller when "stupid" does not pay....


ebay: what is the name of the user who refuses to pay?

seller: Stupid A$$hole

ebay: I beg your pardon?

seller: Stupid A$$hole

ebay: Sir, I am sure we can work this out in a civil way.

seller: I am trying to, but this Stupid A$$hole won't pay for my (bogus) item.

ebay: click.
