Heritage has been bidding on its own items, with full disclosure, since time immemorial. This is well publicized. The whole hobby knows it. I am sure it's not illegal under Texas law or someone would have cracked down on them, long ago. Anyhow, good luck discerning their intent on any given bid, unless there is a ceiling bid already in place.
