Bryan Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 You mean because the new bidder's name ends in 167 also? -Bry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mindfield Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Similar name, joined the same date the auction was listed. Not very imaginative. Much like his listing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavoredthunder Posted April 8, 2005 Author Share Posted April 8, 2005 not just joined submitted his bid less than an hour after it was listed. Doesn't it take an hour for the item to show up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Does seem a bit suspicious, but could be someone who saw the auction and created an account to bid on it. I mean, someone other than the seller. Someone with no imagination and just tacked 167 on the end of his name because he or she saw it on the seller's id. Really. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrldstrman Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 1.000.00 dollars would be 20.00 dollars per system.....the ds is worth 200.00 by its self....shipping would be a killer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shipping is free if you win the auction. Hopefully the seller will package everything up well and not try to cram as much as possible into each box in order to cut down on the shipping costs. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavoredthunder Posted April 9, 2005 Author Share Posted April 9, 2005 Hi to test my theory if the person bidding was also the seller I asked the "high bidder" a question about the shipping costs. Here is my questions I asked to "duckster167" (the current high bidder) Dear duckster167, question about "Video game collector's: I HAVE THEM ALL!!!" What would shipping to LA be for this item? Thanks, Please respond to the question on eBay by clicking the button below. Respond Now Thank you, flavoredthunder HE then responded to be from the seller address!!! Dear flavoredthunder, the shipping for 150 pounds to san diego is around 130. by UPS Please respond to the question on eBay by clicking the button below. Respond Now Thank you, danasbaby0167 If this is not shill bidding I don't know what is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxman Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 Well done. I am impressed. That sounds like one of those stupid criminal stories that you'll see on Leno headlines. Very funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
