| The winning bidder had bid with this seller 72% and the next highest bidder had bid 75% of the time with this seller. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ultimate-Spider-Man-1-cgc-9-8-SS-Stan-lee-RRP-White-variant-Bendis-Quesada-amazi-/282606433126?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=21tXmFVGUiGOPN2tBAparFWsi%252FY%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc |

| Probably. Did you lose? If so better that way, move on and don't bid on that guy again . | ||

| I was bidding on it up until it reached over $450.....that's the highest I was willing to go.....I just found it fishy it would jump between these 2 bidders at ridiculous increments | ||

| Not necessarily shill bidding. Could've just been two guys who really wanted it. Doesn't do the seller any good to shill beyond what's reasonable. | ||

| Doubt it. A high percentage of bids from one or more buyers doesn't necessarily mean they're shills. | ||

| I think it can be hard to determine shill bidding looking solely at how often a buyer bids on a particular sellers items. I tend to return to the same sellers if I get an item that was as advertised and good customer service. | ||

 I bought a meat grinder on amazon for $60 and it's changed my life.

| Does not look like a shill auction at all. | ||

| @rckstr1253 What you are seeing is probably just auto-bids, one had their max bid set to $660 and the other person's was higher...probably $700 which just put him to $670 to win it. | ||

| Shills usually don't have triple digits feedback. | ||
