What can you do when seller is bidding on own items to put price up?. Does ebay actually do anything as they make money either way?

Mentor5 months agoLogic says that if what you say is true, the seller would win many of his own items, then would have to cancel sales.
Too many cancellations would probably be picked up by ebay, just as using another ID to bid on his own items.
Not really worth the effort as seller would likely be banned if caught

Mentor5 months agoYou open three cases for item not as described and the seller's metrics get hit.

Mentor5 months agoThis is shill bidding.
Ebay say they have software in place to detect it.
How do you know seller is doing it?
You can't see full ID of other bidders.

Mentor5 months agoI'm not sure why you think that they may not be genuine bidders though.
Is it the same zero feedback bidder on every item?
