<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Taxidermist, post: 2127767, member: 24849&quot;]It might be a shill bid, but I`ve seen something different a couple of times. An a*hole who already bid his max, checking out the max bid of the buyer who is about to win the lot, and bids accordingly to rise the price to the maximum, thus making the buyer &quot;pay&quot; for winning the lot. A revenge of sorts to punish someone who bid more than his maximum by rising the price. </p><p><br /></p><p>Technically it is not a shill bid, if I understand the term correctly. True shill bidding helps out the seller maximize the sale, not punishing the highest bidder.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
