Default 0 Feedback Bidder on this Item

I had email conversations with this seller first thing this morning. Here is what happened:

A new buyer (Ebay ID: kesjimjam 0 Feedback) opened an account and bid up several of the sets he is selling. Seller said he called EBay immediately and they told him to contact buyer and inquire about payment etc. Seller gave him 3 hours and he did not respond. He then deleted every one of the buyer's bids and blocked him.

Here's a scenario - You make a bid in an auction (lets say for about $2K) and you were outbid. Knowing you didn't have to commit to paying for that item (because you were outbid on it) you bid on another item for about the same price. Then a bid retraction occurs shortly before the auction ended where you were outbid and you are again the high bidder in that auction and lets say you win that auction. Shortly after that you also win the other auction for $2K. Does that mean you have to commit to paying for both auctions?

Guys, this auction was not shilled. I'm pretty sure this is the item in question...

http://offer.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.d...p2047675.l2565

If you look at the bidding history, the guy that Dan was bidding against originally bid before Dan bid. Besides, a shiller could have ran it up even more.

I just had a similar situation happen to me, but a different seller.

Its amusing how some Ebay buyers run up a price, then back out.

Within an hour the seller sent me a Second Chance Offer, which I refused and informed him to relist the item.

One week later and no relisting. Imagine that

I'd ask the seller to cancel my bid as I'd have no interest in bidding in an obviously shilled auction. Just another thought.

Update to my first post (#11)

The seller now messaged me thru Ebay and informed me that he wants to make a deal outside of Ebay.

This just keeps getting better.

BTW, Hope it works out for you Dan.

Dan,

Just a heads up. Here is a previous Net54 post on the seller:

Enter Scumbag.

Song they should track behind all of their listings.

Sorry that happened but not surprised. eBay is shill heaven now and not using a sniper program is as good as asking for it, especially with the consignment sellers.
