Title: Something fishy, or just a non-paying bidder?
Post by: Ozcoins on June 27, 2014, 10:56:15 PM
ebay item 181438551909 (1972 5c PCGS MS67) sold for $260
ebay item 181447832553 (1972 5c PCGS MS67 - with the same PCGS number) is currently listed
What does this situation look like to you?
Is a zero feedback winner a shill, or someone being a pain to others?

newbie seller, newbie buyer
RUN, you can check history and bid, and the 0 has bid on other items from seller 1
and a 0 no longer a registered user
but a 1000 user put a bid in too
newbie may of not wanted to buy in end, who cares, I don't like buying from a seller with such low score

I'd say the winning bidder with 0 FB was a shill with 86% of their bids with this seller, so I'd make a point to never buy from this seller, regardless of the coin on offer.
