This may be a huge case cracker..
The cards have different serial #s and it is a hot card and the bids from the one guy are auto..like a snipe program..
Set the max bid and it enters everytime the bid goes up to a certain point..
Feedback is good...if he was scamming people..think he would have been given bad feedback at least a few times..
He either runs case breaks on line or opens a ton of stuff.
Or maybe he is a reseller and selling for consignments locally..

Oh my bad then, just saw that the "auto" bids were %100 bids with the same seller and assumed.

100% of his bids going to the same seller is fishy.

If we can figure it out..why doesn't eBay have a software alert or something. This sort of thing hurts their rep for sure..
I guess he must be shilling these cards..although he has a lot of them listed..
Weird seller for sure

As long as ebay get's their cut they don't care. It's a very common occurrence.
