buy from a auction house and no worrying about shillers, and turn your attention to snipers.

This sentiment always makes me chuckle. Auction house owners are in prison right now because of shilling. Others shill legally by including in their terms that they may use a house bidder, to bid up to a "hidden" reserve. Auction houses are actually allowed to be less transparent then any Ebay auction. Ebay, even though they have hidden much of the information that used to be readily available, still allow bid patterns to be studied by everybody bidding on that auction. Try calling an auction house and ask them to provide you with bid patterns, ID's, Bid history and retractions of everybody who bid on a particular item you did. I believe most would likely tell you to go take a hike. |
