There was no action from Jan 2nd to the 5th on this item, when most of the bidding and retracting took place. Clearly the bid history would show that d***u is the potential shiller with all those bids to drive the price up, they did retract and made u***7 the high bidder, but so did u***7 three days before the end of auction. If you&#039;re gonna go through the trouble of driving up the price, why end up being the winner of your own auction?</p><p><br /></p><p>At least that&#039;s my theory but then again, bidding history on eBay sort of sucks with the info they give you and who knows if it&#039;s truly accurate.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
