Say you are interested in a card and you decide you are willing to pay up to $5,000 for it.  In the bidding for the card all bidders drop out at $3,500.  All except the owner who shill bids you up to $5,000.  After the auction you learn that the seller has shilled you up another $1,500 - this really would not bother you at all?

Say you are interested in a card and you decide you are willing to pay up to $5,000 for it.  In the bidding for the card all bidders drop out at $3,500.  All except the owner who shill bids you up to $5,000.  After the auction you learn that the seller has shilled you up another $1,500 - this really would not bother you at all?  You would not call the seller to discuss the shill bids?<br />\r\n<br />\r\nWhat I\'m really getting at here is the price for any item is what the market will bear.  By shill bidding the seller created an artificially strong market for the item, effectively forcing you to overpay the market cost of the item.  <br />\r\n<br />\r\nThat would definately bother me.</div>\r\n			\r\n		</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>Your example seems different from mine where the seller has made a predetermination that he will only sell for $5000, and so in effect places a hidden reserve at that level through a shill.

Most here sell very little and are accumulators/collectors.  I am active in both aspects of the hobby.  In Peter\'s scenario, where a consignor has a level in mind at which they will let something go and they place a protective bid at that level, I really do not have an issue with it.  I can bid and win it or not.  I would like to win it for less but obviously this particular card is not available for less, at this time.  I really do not care who my competition is when buying or bidding.  I know what I can afford to spend and what something is worth to me and that is what determines my bids on ebay or in any other format.\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=1027875" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 1027875 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_1027875_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">botn</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=144">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=144" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by botn</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 1027875 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #1027875 -' + '->';

I do not consign much of my inventory as I sell most of it myself on eBay or through direct sales.  On eBay I use higher opening bids on cards I am concerned may not get to a level where I would be comfortable letting them go.  Or I stick them in my store for all of you to ignore and use the Or Best Offer option.  If those items do not sell after a period of time I either consign them to larger auction houses or I list them at 1 cent and hold my breath. In either case I am typically let down with the results.  <br />\r\n<br />\r\nThe auction format, with all of its flaws, has become the most successful method for transacting business in this hobby.  Buyers are empowered and feel they get to set their own price and control the transaction by setting the price they are willing to pay.  This is not typical of how most retail business is conducted.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nI do not believe people should have to pay the maximum they are willing to pay for an item but I think some buyers\' objectives with protective bids or hidden reserves has to do with the threat it poses to a purely natural auction process of interested buyer versus interested buyer. <br />\r\n<br />\r\nGreg\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=1027912" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 1027912 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_1027912_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">botn</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=144">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=144" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by botn</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 1027912 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #1027912 -' + '->';

I forgot to mention starting the auction at a higher price in addition to buy it now and the reserve feature, and that I too hold my breath starting at .99 or .01.  <br />\r\n<br />\r\nIf I\'m understanding right, the term Hidden reserve is being used  in place of shill bid and this is different than a maximum hidden reserve, both of which are known only by the seller.  These are based on subjective percentages of what the seller expects the card to sell for and differentiated by whether or not the seller has knowledge of the highest bid.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nSo what happens when your competitor, that is the person bidding against you for your card, loses to you?\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=1027940" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 1027940 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_1027940_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">Clutch-Hitter</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=8396">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?do=newpm&amp;u=8396" rel="nofollow">Send a private message to Clutch-Hitter</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="https://imageevent.com/four_bills">Visit Clutch-Hitter\'s homepage!</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=8396" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by Clutch-Hitter</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 1027940 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #1027940 -' + '->';

I had a buyer on ebay asking about shipping because he intended to bid on several of my auctions.  As I was watching them sell, it became obvious where his snipes were set and I could have shilled him and made more on those cards.  Similarly as a buyer, I have bid on several related auctions only to get outbid last minute by the same guy every time.  I would not be surprised if some large volume sellers used the bid information on the first few items to predict bidding on future items.  I think in many instances they could make a lot more money shilling them.<br />\r\n<br />\r\n~R1ck St. Ephen\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=1028212" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 1028212 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_1028212_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">veloce</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=137405">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?do=newpm&amp;u=137405" rel="nofollow">Send a private message to veloce</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=137405" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by veloce</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 1028212 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #1028212 -' + '->';

Personally I never really understood/cared about Gem mint 10\'s, etc until now... Let me explain.  As a collector, I actually usually look for vg-ex cards that are crease free, just look ok, etc... Not looking to spend a ton of money on cards, and not expecting to ever sell them for a lot.  <br />\r\n       This all changed when I saw a PSA 10 Jim Rice 1976 on ebay.  I remember when I was in like 5th grade my friends older brother said we could have a few baseballs cards if we helped him with a clean-up project he had around the house.  Anyway one of the cards I got was the Rice.  This was back in the mid eighties and 76 was certainly "vintage" to me back then.  I thought it was the coolest card ever with the trophy on it, etc...  <br />\r\n        My dilemma is this.  The Art Shell thing is just crazy.  It\'s an eight all the way in my opinion.  Slight marks on the black lines, some missing color spots on the ribbon.  I mean its a heck of a card, but not a "10"  The grading thing is in jeopardy if people start to fear that cards can earn a 10 if they don\'t deserve to.  If buyers lose confidence it will be a big problem.  To be quite frank, the Art Shell going from an 8 to a 10 is perhaps the most upsetting thing I\'ve ever seen in the hobby.  Its the only thing holding me back from buying the Rice\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=1028343" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 1028343 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_1028343_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">skelly</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=106581">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?do=newpm&amp;u=106581" rel="nofollow">Send a private message to skelly</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=106581" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by skelly</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 1028343 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #1028343 -' + '->';

I think those who are not bothered by shilling and hidden reserves have an extreme confidence that they <u>know</u> the market value of the cards they bid on and therefore will not overpay no matter.  But I ask the question: how do they get their data to come up with their determination of value?  If they use any past auction results then the data they base their prices on may be skewed by shilling.\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		<!-' + '- edit note -' + '->\r\n			<div class="smallfont">\r\n				<hr size="1" style="color:#D1D1E1; background-color:#D1D1E1" />\r\n				<em>\r\n					\r\n						Last edited by brob28; 08-21-2012 at <span class="time">04:00 PM</span>.\r\n					\r\n					\r\n						Reason: spelling\r\n					\r\n				</em>\r\n			</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / edit note -' + '->\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=1028602" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 1028602 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_1028602_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">brob28</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=8906">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?do=newpm&amp;u=8906" rel="nofollow">Send a private message to brob28</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=8906" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by brob28</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 1028602 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #1028602 -' + '->';

Personally I never really understood/cared about Gem mint 10\'s, etc until now... Let me explain.  As a collector, I actually usually look for vg-ex cards that are crease free, just look ok, etc... Not looking to spend a ton of money on cards, and not expecting to ever sell them for a lot.  <br />\r\n       This all changed when I saw a PSA 10 Jim Rice 1976 on ebay.  I remember when I was in like 5th grade my friends older brother said we could have a few baseballs cards if we helped him with a clean-up project he had around the house.  Anyway one of the cards I got was the Rice.  This was back in the mid eighties and 76 was certainly "vintage" to me back then.  I thought it was the coolest card ever with the trophy on it, etc...  <br />\r\n        My dilemma is this.  The Art Shell thing is just crazy.  It\'s an eight all the way in my opinion.  Slight marks on the black lines, some missing color spots on the ribbon.  I mean its a heck of a card, but not a "10"  The grading thing is in jeopardy if people start to fear that cards can earn a 10 if they don\'t deserve to.  If buyers lose confidence it will be a big problem.  To be quite frank, the Art Shell going from an 8 to a 10 is perhaps the most upsetting thing I\'ve ever seen in the hobby.  Its the only thing holding me back from buying the Rice</div>\r\n			\r\n		</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>I agree that the "vagaries" of the grading exposed on this thread are a serious issue and warrant a public explanation by the principals responsible.  They\'ve already "sanitized" their own message baord by deleting at least 4 threads about the topic.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nAs for the seller I noticed he posted the following on this thread. Why he buried this response in an unrelated thread and didn\'t start one to put all collectors at ease is beyond me: <br />\r\n<br />\r\n<a href="http://forums.collectors.com/messageview.cfm?catid=11&amp;threadid=864822&amp;STARTPAGE=3" target="_blank">http://forums.collectors.com/message...22&amp;STARTPAGE=3</a><br />\r\n<br />\r\n<i>CU Board members, <br />\r\nI welcome you or anyone to come to my office with a polygraph and video....hopefully, my replies below will shed light on the recent accusations...<br />\r\n<br />\r\nthis is how I would reply to the following questions:<br />\r\n<br />\r\ndid I sell a 73 psa art shell psa 8 with a unique amoeba like PD on the reverse ? ans: yes<br />\r\ndid I ever look or realize who the winner of the card was after the auction closed ? ans: no<br />\r\ndid I tip off to anyone that this card was perhaps special and have potential to bump ? ans: no<br />\r\nwas involved in cracking out the card in any fashion and resubmitting it to psa > ans: no<br />\r\ndid I have some special profit deal above my 5% for selling the card ? ans: no<br />\r\ndid I sell the card once bumped to a psa 10 with the same unique amoeba reverse ? ans: yes<br />\r\ndid I prompt/initiate/instruct any shill bidding on this card ? no, I had no knowledge of who was bidding on the card...<br />\r\nhave I taken any action against that bidders ID since it was shown to me that a safely bid was placed ? yes, i have blocked that ID....<br />\r\nwhy did they grade the card a psa 8 and then a psa 10 ? this is a question for psa...we don\'t grade them, we just sell them...<br />\r\n<br />\r\ngentleman , my role in the industry is very clear....we move inventory....we have an active consignor pool of over 400 consignors....<br />\r\nI currently don\'t have an account submitting cards to psa....I spend the lion share my time busy with consignments and buying large lots from auction houses and breaking up the lots....<br />\r\n<br />\r\nwe do not have any special arrangement with anyone who buys from our consignments, anyone is welcome to come to my office to view inventory like a major auction house <br />\r\nand I will answer questions via any auction to the best of my ability....if someone wins a cards and decides to review it for a higher grade or cracks it out to resubmit, this is their own doing <br />\r\nand we have NOTHING to do with it - we aren\'t partners with any buyers on item they win from probstein123 auctions - we take our 5% and thats it....as ebays largest seller , <br />\r\nwe do auction loads of cards that fall in this category, ie: old label psa 8\'s , well centered , that have never been reviewed before...if a dealer or collector wins these cards and gets some sort of bump , its without knowledge and <br />\r\nparticipation from probstein123....<br />\r\nif psa/sgc or beckett holders a card we will sell it....if its raw and we think the card has been trimmed or altered in some way , we state this ( see our prior auctions ) ...<br />\r\n<br />\r\nthanks<br />\r\nrick</i>\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=1028683" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 1028683 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_1028683_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">WhenItWasAHobby</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=826">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?do=newpm&amp;u=826" rel="nofollow">Send a private message to WhenItWasAHobby</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=826" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by WhenItWasAHobby</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 1028683 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #1028683 -' + '->';

Rather than ignore some of these people saying stuff you are quick on the trigger to jump at his defense when Rick himself has not even bothered to address the board about an ongoing thread against him and his consigner.  I havent bid with him in yrs because I felt some auctions were inflated.  Proof enough for me was the same 3 cards were up as BIN\'s 2-3 weeks later by him.  Maybe the buyer backed out and he figured he could resell at 20% higher than the 25% higher they sold at already.   Just my $.02 since I can\'t prove either scenario to be the reason so I just stay away.\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=1028808" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 1028808 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_1028808_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">Pup6913</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 1028808 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #1028808 -' + '->';

Would you feel better if Rick just puts reserves on cards, and WHY would that make you feel any better?</div>\r\n			\r\n		</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>Here is the problem with a shill being the substitute for an opening bid or reserve.  Let\'s say Rick has a card that the consignor wants to get $500 for.  Rick starts the auction at $.99 and the consignor places a bid of $499 (substitute for a reserve) to protect his card.  At this point the high bid is only $.99 because he is the first bidder.  Another bidder comes along and bids $500 on the card.  Immediately the price goes to $500 because the consignor\'s proxy was $499.  No other bids are placed and bidder number 2 wins the card for $500.  <br />\r\n<br />\r\nNow, one could argue that bidder number 2 was willing to spend $500 on the card in the first place so there was no harm done, but without the shill (or however you want to sugar coat it), he might have won the card considerably cheaper if it were a true $.99 auction with no shills.  <br />\r\n<br />\r\nOn the particular card in question, it wouldn\'t have made a difference because the other bids were much higher than the shills.  But how many other cards has this happened with from this particular consignor (pank21) where his "hidden reserves" drove the price up unnecessarily?\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=1027846" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 1027846 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_1027846_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">vintagetoppsguy</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=3880">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=3880" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by vintagetoppsguy</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 1027846 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #1027846 -' + '->';

			If a consignor wins his own card, then he tries to sell it again, or in a different format, or someplace else.  This happens constantly, as many threads noting how soon after auctions cards appear someplace else attest to.  It's just a fact of life -- people aren't giving cards away, for the most part.  The good news about ebay is that nobody can see your snipe.
