I have a weird situation panning out. I have an item up for bid that runs in the 100.00 range and you can buy it anywhere so it is not haard to find or rare. I started the auction on Sat. It got a few bids the first day nothing real over the limit then now I notice the bidding has jumped to 60-70 dollars since last night. The high bidder and 2nd highest bidder reg yesterday. My item is the only thing they have bid on .. 0 feedback and sunglasses...
I dont want to waste a week scaring people off of this auction to find out this is someone that is just messing wiht my auction. Tell me what you would do in this situation...

Bonnie, I would just wait it out. I guess I don't really think it is that odd. You say they have no feedback and sunglasses. Everyone has to start somewhere. If the price is still under the $100 you say it can go for anywhere, then it is still a good buy, and maybe they feel comfortable bidding on an item that they know what it shoud sell for. And just because they are the high bidder now, doesn't mean they will win. Also, I have seen people pay more for something then it is worth, maybe they get into the bidding thing or whatever. Mine is not to reason why, mine is to sell and ship! JMHO
