I'm observing this thread with great interest because I too have purchased many items over the years from gregmorris on the bay. Obviously, I would hate to learn I got shilled but I've always felt I had a pretty good radar when something fishy was going on and never felt anything I bid on was funky. Greg has always been great to deal with, his cards are always as described and he ships quickly. I always attributed the interest he drew in his cards to the extra time he spends on email marketing.
As a bidder (and winner) of a couple of the cut 64 tattoos I can speak directly on that topic. I purchased the Perranoski for $7.50 and the Dodgers logo for $8.50. I would put both prices in that $5 range that Larry mentioned and would have gladly paid three times that for each considering the only other examples I've seen on ebay in the past 6-7 years were graded and in the $100-$300 range. There's no way I'm spending that on a subset issue, test or otherwise, just to say I own one. I'm very happy owning a cut copy for much less.

Bidders are retracting bids as a regular strategy now, because Ebay allows them to. Has nothing to do with shilling for the most part.
All you can do is either block them or warn them when they start messing with YOUR auctions..............but if you started blocking everybody who has a ton of retractions with other sellers nowadays, you'd be left with very few bidders. Ebay could solve this very easily by warning or suspending bidders with multiple retractions, but they don't seem to have any interest in doing this. |
