Title: Re: Don't shill bid Post by: Arrrhalomynn on November 08, 2004, 06:28:58 AM That's great. The worst thing about shill bidders is that you can't prove a thing, no matter how much you suspect something. Let's hope some people will learn their lesson from this.
Title: Re: Don't shill bid Post by: Sauza12 on November 08, 2004, 06:55:58 AM No. no one will learn a thing because Ebay won't stop the shill bidders who only bid up a $50 item. It's just too easy to get away with it which is unfortunatley something that is an unavoidable crime on all online auctions.
Title: Re: Don't shill bid Post by: captain_nintendo on November 08, 2004, 07:19:27 PM Yeah , I guess you would only see action taken on big ticket items and not a small ticket video game ::)
I dont think I have been in an auction yet that has been "shilled" Title: Re: Don't shill bid Post by: Sauza12 on November 09, 2004, 06:40:04 AM I was in one once when I was new to Ebay, and I just retracted my bid and sent an email to the seller. I wonder if that guy is still on ebay?
