Just sayin....

I've also bought from Jon on numerous occasions (just got a package from him yesterday in fact) and have never gotten the impression of anything shady going on. More often than not, I've gotten the items at less than my maximum bid, often substantially less. In several instances, I recognized the lot from one of the bigger auction houses' recent auctions, and actually got it for less than he paid for it. Not to bash on Jon, but if he's shilling his own stuff, he's doing it wrong!

Seriously though, I think this is just a fluke, not an indication of nefarious activity. Make of it what you will, but I won't hesitate to bid on the next lot of his that catches my eye.
