Posted the pictures sideways. and her ebay name is something like "russiannadia". And she lives out of the USA where tracking her down would be tougher. <br /><br />Gee... What makes you say it's fake?

Posted By: <b>bcornell</b><p>From the description on her '52 Topps Mantle, "Unfortunately I cannot offer pickup. I have been burned on meetups before and do not feel comfortable doing it"<br /><br />3 guesses about those 'meetups':<br /><br />A. Episode of "Cops"<br />B. Mail-order bride<br />C. A truckstop was involved<br /><br /><br />Bill

Posted By: <b>David Smith</b><p>To all,<br /><br />This is one (of many) reasons that I would like to be as wealthy as Bill Gates or Warren Buffett. I would see crap like this and bid on it. I would win (no matter what) and find out what their home address was. I would mail a check and then go to their city and be at their home with the local Police when the chack arrived.<br /><br />A second reason would be I could own a large number of shares in eBay and have a direct say in these matters as far as getting listings removed and having the authorities investigate the sellers.<br /><br />David

Posted By: <b>Dave Hornish</b><p>Well, somebody needs to do something. A large skunking just took place, complete with shill bidding. Unbelieveable. Just looking at the photo on ebay you can tell it was done on a computer printer.....

Posted By: <b>Robert {Bigb13}</b><p>How do you know there was shilling? We only see what Ebay wants us to see which is Bidder Numbers, no names. Thats why when an item goes above $200 I stop bidding because I don't know if there is shilling going on.Rob&nbsp;

Posted By: <b>Dave Hornish</b><p>Some low # bidders had very high percentages bid with this seller. You can hover over their bidder # and get stats (which I don;t think you can get, oddly enough, on sub-$200 bids that show actual ID's.

Posted By: <b>Jim VB</b><p>There was clearly bad bidding on the Mantle at least. (I don't know if you can have "good" bidding on phony items.)<br /><br />Early in the day there was a $5000 max bid on the Mantle which took out the underbidder's high of $4500. The seller then cancelled that bid because of "bad feedback." That took the underbidder back to the top spot, but put his bid back to around $2500. However, everyone knew what his max bid was. Over the course of the evening, it got walked right back up.<br /><br />It sold to a brand new ebayer. I truly hope the bid was a fake so no one but the seller got burned.
