[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 2190487, member: 15929"]Why would a 4 feedback seller show up as a 2 feedback bidder? IMO, you're dreaming if you think that the seller bid on his own stuff since feedback numbers are constant. I've verified that if I had 2058 feedback back in May that when I go back and look at that listing it shows todays feedback. And for the record, if a "bidder" has the same IP address as the seller, the seller gets Naru'ed to think it over. This happened to Mad<arty over on the CU Forums with items he was selling back around 2008. He used his lap top to create the listings then logged off. His buddy borrowed his laptop to login and bid on Marty's items. Same IP address showed up in eBays audit files and Marty got a weeks vacation for supposed shill bidding. Now, its not impossible to have two separate IP providers coming into the same household or business which would generate different IP addresses but who does that?[/QUOTE]
