shill biddding or just me?

[buymycards]

In the last 30 days he bid on over 400 items, but only has a feedback of 3, with 0% positive and 73 retractions in 30 days. It doesn't look like he has bid with this seller until this auction. Maybe not shilling - just stupid.

Thanks for the opinion.

this is why I've turned to sniping program. initially I was resistant to the idea, cause in principle I shouldn't have to withhold my bid to the last moment, and partially cause I didn't like the idea of giving my ebay account information to a third party. but both for reasons of convenience (don't need to be at a computer at the time the auction ends) and to minimize impact of shill bidding, I've converted to using it nearly exclusively.

This is pretty blatant

Here is his bid time and retraction time. His reason for retracting was "cannot contact the seller". I'm not sure how hard he tried in those 19 seconds.
Bid: Oct-29-11 12:07:10 PDT
Retracted: Oct-29-11 12:07:29 PDT

IMO, it sure looks like shilling, but I suppose it just might be a lunatic bidder. I can understand hiding Ebay identities during the auction, but not afterwards.
