<p>[QUOTE=&quot;clembo, post: 372169, member: 8033&quot;]Mark,</p><p><br /></p><p>I have to admit the title of this thread made me laugh.</p><p>The content within does not but KUDOS to you for the effort!</p><p><br /></p><p>Ebay will ban if they don&#039;t lose money. At the shop I work at I just placed a bid on an Ultime Franc for my co worker. To jack up the price? No, he wanted it if it went cheap enough but couldn&#039;t bid as he once did from work, got suspended and my boss had his auctions cancelled for a time due to &quot;shilling&quot;.</p><p>Problem was there was no shilling. Sometimes the boss lists something we may actually want at the right price.</p><p>Scott (my coworker) jumped through hoops to get both he and the boss (a powerseller) reinstated. I had to bid for Scott because he is forbidden to. He lost by quite a few bucks by the way.</p><p><br /></p><p>As it is I had to bid from my house because if I bid from work forget it. No complaints, no proof but you&#039;re gone buddy!</p><p><br /></p><p>I have actually been accused of shill bidding myself by bidding on my bosses stuff BEFORE I ever worked for him! If I see an item listed at $20 in the shop and can get same from auction at $10 why would I pass it up?</p><p><br /></p><p>A guy accused the boss of shilling on my stuff when I sold a 2001 Silver proof set. This was before I worked there as well. Hey, he bid $100 on a $145 set. Think if he won that wouldn&#039;t be for sale in his case?</p><p><br /></p><p>I like what you did Mark and a shame they can&#039;t or won&#039;t differentiate. Wonder how long it will take before they start banning the &quot;infoauctions&quot; that some of us have been known to post. Might interfere with the greed machine you know.</p><p><br /></p><p>clembo[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
