Does 100% bid activity w/one seller mean shilling?

[travrosty]

just bidding a lot with one seller might not mean and probably does not indicate shill bidding. you are right, you need more than that.

this guy i caught had 3 or 4 indicators of shill bidding, and when i informed him, he acted very strange, he was not very defensive about it when i suggested shill bidding like you would expect if he was totally innocent and he is a boxing collector/seller whose name most would recognize too. i told him to stop or i would report the activity to ebay. i eventually did report it but nothing got done. ebay is hesistant to do anything.

I bid on an auction of his and the shill kept bidding me up until i couldnt bid any more. i let the seller know something was fishy here. he cancelled the sale before it ended and said that if i believed there was shill bidding he would cancel the auction and start the auction over. hardly the actions of someone who was innocent.

Thanks for the feedback. I haven't noticed if the cards won by the bidder with 100% on this seller resurfaced again from the original seller, but then again I haven't followed it up that closely either. Most of what I saw were bids up to a point early on, seemingly to keep the action going, then someone else would top it down the wire. This, in part, also fueled the shilling question in my mind?

Thanks again for your feedback!
