<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rodeoclown, post: 1341091, member: 34005&quot;]Perhaps if it&#039;s the same member driving up the prices on a sellers auctions, then only to retract, that&#039;s obvious but I bet those that do in fact do this are smart enough to not do this. So first, find a member doing this, then it&#039;s pretty obvious if it&#039;s done on a large majority of auctions.</p><p><br /></p><p>If it&#039;s just once or twice, although fishy it may be, still not enough evidence as I&#039;m sure there are literally thousands of bid retractions a day on eBay. Who could explain people&#039;s behavior though, I&#039;m sure there&#039;s actually plenty of occurrences where someone keeps bidding but then immediately realizes that once they are the high bidder, they may not like the item or found a flaw with it, etc. You can&#039;t rule that out either.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m willing to bet eBay isn&#039;t going to likely care until the item&#039;s price is very high, where it really does make a difference and makes it worth both eBay and the person who reports it (who&#039;s likely bidding on the item) time and resources.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
