What % do you start thinking shill?

[gvsu96]

Just won an auction and was looking at the bidders after it closed and noticed a 0 feedback bidder with 30% activity with that seller and kind of though it could be a shill.
His bis was still lower than my max bid that I put in so it's not like I got in to a bidding war or anything.

It got me thinking though at what percentage to you start thinking shill?

30-40% starts to raise my suspicion, but it also depends on whether or not it's a new eBayer and how many total bids they have.

Anything above 25% for a 0 feedback bidder would have me concerned. The seller would have me more concerned, to be honest, as my buying has really shrunk to just a few dealers at this point due to all the garbage out there.
