I thought maybe it was the 1/1 that ended a day or so ago, but yeah it kinda looks like shilling

I don't think it is....I know on my eBay android app, it has a button to place a quick minimum bid increasment....sometimes I just hit that over and over if I don't feel like typing in an actual bid....especially if I'm like driving or something.

Actually after looking closer I don't think it is

naw i dont think it is shilling either, i think the guy might have messed up and thought he had been outbid when in fact he wasnt so he kept rebidding, even the same same max amounts lol. I did that once a while back when i had a brain fart myself.

why in the world are you worried about shill bidding when it is at 8.50. trust me, you will win it at 12 bucks....that's where i stopped the shilling (jk, jk, jk Smile)

i appreciate garrett's work. one heck of a back.

Shilled, nope, none of the bidders have a high bid percentage with the seller, the highest one is like 3%, if it were something like 15% or higher then I would question it.

And looking at the sellers recent sales history, he had a few nice cards that he surely could have shilled, and gotten a lot more money for, but sold them from less than $5
