Don't buy from this idiot... there is obvious shill bidding going on.... He tries to make it less obvious by using an account with a decent amount of feedback, but it is still happening.
It started here as a $700 BIN/OBO....
[ebay]221413460991[/ebay]
But he got one declined offer... so he cancelled it because of an "error" in the listing.
Relisted as an auction, but it didn't bring much, and is marked as "sold"...

Looking at the bidding history, notice the e***e(130) bidder who pops in from time to time to run the price up...
You can pull a sanitized history on the bidders to see if anything funky is happening. Seems like that bidder e***e(130) does ALOT of bidding on this seller's items... and in all different categories (formal dresses, boots and boom boxes?), and sometimes "wins". Any bets on if Seller #2 is also the same as, or a friend of, Seller #1? Lots of bids for that seller too...
And.. what do you know... the "sold" item is now immediately relisted for a $600 BIN/OBO....

I hate it when sellers think they can just jack around with the price like that... It is against eBay's rules, but they don't really care.... anything that raises the final value fees is fine with them...
