Shills

My complaint with eBAY is people selling
an item and having a shill bid up the price.
I use Murdock's approach so sometimes the
shill outbids me. Then the seller contacts
me direct by email saying the winning bid
was no good and I have the chance to purchase
the item for my maximum bid. Now it's outside
of eBAY, I don't know if the seller is on
the up and up.

Other than the actions of a few dishonest
people that ruin it for everyone else
I don't see a problem. I wish eBAY
would be more agressive in its enforcement
against dishonest seller and buyers too.
