The seller only has 11 feedback so this guy must of bid on everything the seller has ever sold but the guy has no feeback as a seller at all so I don't get it lol..

it being 100% with this seller isn't necessarily shill except when you see 44 bids all with the same seller. so the buyer has never bid on anything in the last 30 days that someone else is selling. it almost doesn't get any worse and obvious than this. SHILL!

I call it a shill. Every item that the seller has with bids has the same guy bidding up the items. Watch the auction as well as the others. If the others get a bid and then bid up by the same bidder it definitely proves it in my opinion.

I just bid on this one:

Lets see who outbids me and when.

you won't be outbid. the shill bidder is probably watching these boards!

Even if he is a shill bidder, he's not doing a good job. The only real item up for bid that is out of place is the Lee Evans auto. The only other item he has for over 10 bucks is a strasburg xfractor rc, which is pretty reasonable. I wouldn't bid on it personally, but I feel more pity than anger with this alleged seller/shiller

Thanks all. How do I go about reporting something like that? Email Customer support? Or actually call on the phone?

That is why I snipe everything....no chance to run up to my highest bid.
