My guess is probably a shill, yeah. No other reason for a 0 feedback bidder to have like 6+ bids on the same item in a row.

Does eBay even do anything about shill bidding? I honestly have no clue. I've never personally dealt with the situation.

I would hope someone out bids you again and then walk away
from that one and move one. Do you have a play it again sports by you.
I bought on of these for my kid since she want to catch. It was in good shape
and I got it for like 75% of the new one price.

Likely a shill. They have 100% bidding activity with this seller (on two items).

If you are high bidder, i would just not pay and tell him it was because you were shilled, and report it to ebay. I have done this before and got no NPB.

Another good reason to snipe instead of bidding.

We used to have one, but they moved like 45 minutes away :(

I loved that place

can't you withdraw your bid with over a day left?

yes, any time before 12hrs left.
I would do it for sure, then he would be stuck paying paypal fees when it didn't even sell... :lol:
It would also show that it sold for just his lowest bid... I then email him, and state that I see that the high bidder has 0 feedback, and that you would be happy to buy it for that "NOW LOW PRICE" if the buyer doesn't pay.

Seriously, definetely retract your bid.

Why are you bidding that high with so much time left in the auction anyways? You're just asking for this to happen.
