SOOOOOO this is the second time I have watched and bidded on an item from the SAME seller that had it listed less than a month ago... WELL I just figured they had 2 of the same item...... So I did my bidding this time around but didn't let if go over 17 and of course once again just like the first auction I am outbidded... ugh so I just got back on my ebay and looked at the "items lost" and seen the most recent one AND the one from 4/30 in there from the same item....
WELL guess what???
Both auctions had the same winner!!! AND I decided to check the sellers feedback with is only 9.... AND that "so called" person who won back in 4/30 NEVER left feedback............... SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... here is what I am thinking... This seller has a fake ebay account and puts in high bids to make it go for more money!!! GRRRRR... that really ticks me off.... I had been watching it for 3 days and just like before there was no bids on the bag until the last day of auction................... Boy am I ticked off....
has this ever happened to anyone else??? I sent the seller an email asking just how much he actually wants for the bag... BUT I will never bid on anything else he puts up AGAIN!!!
ugh............. thanks for hearing me vent!

Report the auctions to ebay...THEY know who they are.
"Middle age is when you choose your cereal for the fiber, not the toy." 4|3|you should report both auctions|Mumzie|luckiestbamboo2@aol.com|11:19:54|05/23/2009|
for shill bidding. Something like that happened to me before and I reported them. They lost their accout too.HTH 5|1|Report the auction if you're pretty sure it's the same bidder|Beaglesfly|lmllr77@aol.com|11:42:00|05/23/2009|
How can you tell it's the same bidder? By the feedback number?
Pull up the auction and you will find a "report this auction" link. Then they can check the ISPs or whatever to see if they're the same. It takes A LOT to get banned from ebay, but at least it will be on their record (and may cause them to lose their search standing which will make them think twice about doing it again).
