Yah sometimes it just seems kinda obvious when every time you bid up another bid comes in just a bit higher, seems like from a friend or the seller maybe just using a different email address to appear to be from someone else. I see certain sellers put out low bids and if their bid goes higher and no other bids before ending, you get a second chance offer, that’s another kinda obvious giveaway too.
I don’t think EBay can do anything about it, would be to much privacy intrusion. Buyer beware and only bid what you can or want to, unfortunately I’m afraid that’s what it comes down to on some of these auctions.
