Within a day or so the seller re-lists, already knowing that the zero bidder is not going ahead - how do people work these things out so quickly?
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/CAPT-FANTASTIC-Pinball-Machine-1976-FANTASTIC-Classic-/110574765387?pt=AU_CoinOpDo these "zero/fake bidders" reply that they aren't the real deal, and sorry not proceeding?
What I don't get if that the zero bidder " d***e (0) " put a bid in of $3,850.00 which was met with an auto-response (you can see the next bid was 14 minutes older) and then bids again, but was not outbid the last time. If you were messing with the auction, wouldn't you just bid a really high number just the once?
But its relisted with a Buy it Now $500 more than the under bidders - so in the meantime the seller has chosen to increase the price above what the market offers, and not offered it to the under bidders at "market" price?
That's the thing with these claims of someone messing with the auctions - why isn't the under bidder buying?? Especially when there's several all not far off the final price?
