I bet that if you sold the same item yourself that you would have had a much lower selling price. And don't tell me it is because of return customers. I have been buying/selling on eBay for 14 years, and buyers purchase based on the item and price. Seller reputation only goes so far, in my opinion.

So are you saying Probstein shills his own auctions or asks someone to shill his auctions for him?

No, I am not saying that. I am saying that he gets higher prices on his auctions for items than other sellers.

So if return customers aren't the reason for that item selling for the price it did... What is it?
