Shill bidding is a contributor to selling cards at a loss.

Of late I have see a lot of "just selling it for what I paid for it because of a new opportunity" posts both here and on Facebook. The problem is that in many cases the seller bought at the top of the market and what they are offering the card/piece for no longer accurately reflects the current market.

Because the original buyer overpaid in order to outbid the shill bidders, and now that they're trying to sell, nobody wants it at that price?
