Well, what I tell you guys?? He went out and won his own auction trying to run the price up! If you notice the item has been relisted laready?? DIdnt give his high bidder a chance to even pay?? THe same auction ID has bid on several of his auction but never been the high bidderjust runs the price up at the last minute. Instead of paying that final sell fee he will let his spoof eser ID amazonlawn take a negative feedback and get his fees refunded.

I have been on e-bay forever. I see this all thime especially on car auctions. I have bought an sold cars on e-bay bought my 944 on e-bay from a local guy so had privy on car history and condition pre--sale look around drive. If I were one bidding on this auction I would report his *** to e-bay for price gouging there is now way that miss matched peice of **** is worth 10,000??

Eric,
When I had my Firebird on eBay last month a guy came to look at it. He was legit. To my face he asked me my reserve, and I told it to him. He then asked if he could buy it for the reserve.

While I was hoping to get a few grand more than the reserve, I set the reserve, and was willing to let it go for that amount.

A bird in the hand....

We shook hands, and he took the car. Is it still appreciating? Yes it is. Did I get a fair price? I guess I did since I let it go.

Too many games go on when nobody sees what they are buying.

Thanks for the heads up. How do we check to see what the other bidders are bidding on?
