Unless I'm blind, I don't see shilling.
So, in turn, I have a question for you. What makes you think there is shilling on this?

Do you know what shill bidding is? I'm going to assume you don't, because there is not a single ounce of evidence that suggests there is shill bidding going on here...absolutely ZERO. Please, I'd love to hear why you think it's shilled...

several bids early on with no competing bids DOES make it look sketchy

Considering it's only Day 1 of the auction, and all the bids afterwards shows that this card would have hit that regardless. It also easily could have been someone else doing some incrimental bidding which in turn shows each "bid" by that person, wherein his max was probably $1000.

So which of these is your "questionable" ones?

Bidder 1?? Has 42% because his first handfull of bids are with this seller, which could have easily been counted if someone bid incrementally, thus counting each one as a "bid". Nevermind this buyer also has bid on 9 total items from NINE different sellers. If he was shilling for someone, he'd be bidding most likely on multiple items from this buyer.

Bidder 11?? Because he has three total bids, and one is here, therefore that equals out to 33%.

Hate to break it to you, but you need to look at MORE than just the percentages, as that does not tell the full story.

Not true always.

A guy bid up one of my items that I have for sale right now in 10 dollar increments until he was the leading bidder. Don't put it past a bidder out there to do it on this auction.

It's not ironic, it's a huge card.

This is technically a Rookie Card of the biggest rookie of this season. It's an autographed 1/1 card. People come out of the wordwork when cards like this arrive.

To you it may be a 3rd-year card, to many others, who believe in the "RC Rules"...this is a true Rookie Card.
