| I was watching an item with a starting bid of $66 with 0 bids. I was waiting to throw my bid in late. This item had no other watchers that I could see. 15 minutes from close there's now 3 bids and the price is still $66, so one person bid and then reupped twice. I drove my counter bidding up to $72 and gave up. Item ended. Item was immediately relisted at $75 BIN OBO. Obviously shilled by the seller just to guage market interest and get the most out of a buyer. Should I put in an offer? And if so, how low should I start? |

| I would ask why it was relisted when someone won the auction. | ||

 You think I'm joking, I'm not.

| I just did the same thing. Opening bid was 69.00. I waited until 4 seconds and won. I paid immediately to ensure that no funny business. Can't believe I got highest graded GA for that price. | ||

| I just tried to send a message to the seller and got this. "We're sorry we couldn't find an answer for you. Unfortunately, due to the high volume of messages this seller receives, they are unable to respond to your specific question right now. We suggest reviewing the item again to see if your answer is in the seller's listing." I've never seen this before. |

| If you want the book and were willing to pay $72, just buy it for $75. Shill bidding or not, if the price is right then do it. | ||

| It wasn't a comic book, if it was I probably would just bite the bullet. Being it's not a critical item for me, I don't really want to reward bad behavior. | ||

| I'd offer $60 & see what they counter with. But, if it's a more common item, maybe take your business somewhere else. |

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