I have lots of issues with PWCC (I know, you never would have guessed lol), but I would be shocked if they are actually paying anyone to bid on cards. I would bet a lot against it, in fact. In my opinion the issue is much more likely failure adequately to discipline/prevent consignors bidding up their own, or for friends.
Speaking of all that, I guess the tell-all we were promised by Cortney never materialized.
PS I also think there is some element of guys who bid mostly or even exclusively with them, as irrational as that seems in the days of full buyer protection, generally good customer service across the ebay platform, etc.
