Message:: [QUOTE="afox, post: 1092522, member: 4934"]I have called EBAY to complain about someone I thought was a shill.  I was bidding on many different lots of one particular seller (A).  But I noticed that one particular bidder(B) was bidding a lot on this sellers auctions - but never winning.  AND when I click on his specific info (in an auction (1) click to the right of "Bid history:", then click on (2) a specific user) you could see that even when he won an auction - he would retract his bid.  I was alerted to this particular guys because I lost out to him on an auction - but he retracted his bid - so I ended up winning.  I tried to find out as much as I could about this shill(er).  You can only gather so much info.  After that you have to go to EBAY.  They never told me one way or another as to any outcome.  I still see this guy (B) bidding up the sellers (A) auctions (this thread caused me to look just now).  I'm as convinced as I can be that something underhanded is going on.  This particular guy has 1031 bid retractions in the last 6 months.  His (B) bid activity is 100% with this specific seller (A).  I despise people like this.  Making a buck by cheating.  Taking advantage of others.[/QUOTE]
