While I have only heard good things about Henry in the past, I do want to address a shill bidding point. Unfortunately, I think using eBay as a medium for the auctions may tend to make shill bidding easier to accomplish. If i'm to bid in REA for example, Rob would know all of my info as i had to register with him before being allowed to bid. In an eBay style auction such as this, I registered with eBay, not Henry. So, Henry doesn't really know who I am - just my eBay ID. Only eBay knows who I am. To me, this would seem to make shill bidding easier. In addition, the remedies to collect unpaid bids are probably fewer. Where Rob can bring NPB to court, Henry, I would imagine, would have a much tougher time accomplishing this.

With Ebay, you can't retract a bid if there is less than 12 hours to go. That is why I don't think that was a shill bidder. There is someone who bids on my auctions, and bids in 50 cent or $1 increments. He has multiple bids on my items, and to an untrained eye, it guess it could look like a shill bidder. But he always pays....just has a very unorthodox bid style....to each his own I guess......
