There is an auction for a car on ebay.This car has been listed a few times and this seller had another car that he listed several times.Every auction there is a 0 feedback bidder that bids up the auction and stops onebid from reserve.This is every auction on both cars.I called the seller on this and he blocked my bids.Have reported this a few times to ebay but nothing is ever done about it.Its obvious that the seller is using a friend or another account to inflate the price.How can this be proven.I have the item number but not sure if I can post it on here

inflating price

Think about it.

 

Since the reserve is not met, does it really matter to you or anyone else?

 

The seller will not sell until and unless the reserve is met.  Does it matter how many bidders bid under the reserve?

The seller pays non-refundable fees on every listing.

If the 0 FB bidder is not a shill, then the seller is foolish not to realize that he has found the market price and to accept it , instead of throwing good money after bad.

 

Don't try to deal with idiots. They have more practice.
