Hi,
I was interested (ok curious) in (part of) a lot
It had had no interest and I wondered if it would be sniped - Well it got 1 bid in the last hour of the auction and sold for £100, funny thing is that I repeated a search for similar items and BAM, brand new listing from the same seller, less than a minute after the original ended, asking £399 - is this shill bidding, has the account been hacked, or is this some other scam I'm not familiar with?
I reported the second item as fraudulant but couldn't see way to link to first item..
I think you are making too much of this, it is not Shill bidding. I think it is simply that the seller did not get enough money on the sale so has just relisted at a higher price.
Unless he cancelled the first sale properly, and that should be with the consent of the buyer (doubtful), he still pays the selling fee and buyer should leave negative feedback.
I suggest you watch to see what happens, on his account !!
