Default Shill bidders
Who knows why, but my bet is all of the bidders are shill bidders. Each of the top 3 bidders have all bid on just ONE item, this item. Seems ironic, especially for a crap lot from a seller who has been on ebay 2 weeks to get 3 high dollar bids from infrequent bidders. Possibly a seller hoping that his shill bid activity will stimulate a bid from a legit buyer.

Agreed. Even 9 cents a card is way too high for those cards. Looks like a total scam to me.....

Good observation. It does look like they were dangling the hook in the water.

Thankfully, the listing was ended by the seller before an outcome could be determined...oh well, I will just have to wait for the next $8k crap lot to be listed to put in my bid.

Anyone familiar with him?
There was a guy in that video? My attention was clearly drawn elsewhere
