    What do you bet it's a shill that bid?

    I bet it's not. After all, if the auction closes with that bid, doesn't he have to pay a percentage to eBay?

    A long time ago I got into eBay wars; what you do is create a fake ID and bid on someone's auction - you don't pay. The bidder in this auction has zero buys/sells. That fits the pattern.

    I thought that was a joke. Well, that is a good way of letting the guy know why he shouldn't ask such a high starting bid on something worthless.

    He'll get it out of it by crying to eBay/PayPal that it was a phony, no-pay bidder. But, it might stop him from trying something like that in the future.

    Good one.

    I dont really care for people who try and get rich like that! Work hard like the rest of us! I bet he is crapping his pants right now thinking he is going to be rich. He'll learn.

    Off course it´s a shill, If he closes the auction within the close time he does not have to pay any fees.

    Which will be returned to him if the shill files a complaint or "returns" the item.
