Oops, your shill bidding got a little too carried away

It could be the tandem bidding scam where the under bidder cancels when the auction is about to end leaving the high bid just above $30.

I'd note that the high bidder has 0% feedback and 84% of his bids with this seller.

I'm a little confused by this. The high bidder has a feedback number of 5565 but it does say "Feedback: 0% Positive". What does that mean?

I believe that feedback is calculated in 12 month intervals. All of this "bidders" activity must be recent, therefore no feedback has been left in that time frame.

Just a guess.

Quick search shows that bidder is also in on other 1968's. He is either the consignor, or he's very passionate about 1968's.

Or..

Also, look for last minute cancellations to see if it's the crater the auction theory listed above by another poster......which I have my own suspicions about.
