Look at the past and present bids from id
paperclippc

Then look at salesrepresentative

It looks like paperclippc is shilling all of salesrepresentative auction...no wonder I keep losing out on his items...

I am just seeing things here?

accountingsystem has been given the boot also I have noticed that as soon as paperclippc started budding salesrepresentative went from the normal 7 day auction to a 3 day and 5 day I hope they give salesrepresentative the boot too

I don't think many shill bidders realize that ebay records IP addresses on all phases of the auction. If the shill bidders are using the same computer it's very easy for ebay to see it.

I am not so sure if ebay takes the time to look at this. I reported what appeared to be one a few months ago. It had gone on for quite a few months but not on any big ticket stuff. Both parties were naru'd the next day.

I have questions? Now lets say I won one of his auctions that had shill bidding on. Am I required to go through with that auction. Or can it go back to the price before the shill bidder?

I hate it when someone I know bids on one of my auctions. That makes me nervous. I am happy to see that they are gone...What a way to ruin your auctions.

Last summer I had a book listed..it went for about $5.00 I think....

when the winner responded to my EOA, it was a woman I work with...I didn't know it was her and she didn't realize it was my item until she received my email

It's a small small world.
