Bonkers. Two very keen bidders that got carried away or 'shilling'. It's hard to tell really

That is mental.

personally, I don't believe that there is as much shill bidding on ebay as some believe, but in this case it looks transparent.

The under bidder drove the price up & has only bid on that item in the last month. Very suspicious.

The 100% thing should not be regarded to seriously. For instance if you only bid on one item in a thirty day period, your bid history will show as 100% with that seller.

The winner of that item n***I has quite a high feedback count with only 6% activity in the last 30 days, the high feedback points towards a more genuine account. As shill accounts often have low feedback numbers, as they are sometimes just opened as a second account for the purpose of shilling.

e***3 bid was never bettered as n***I stopped bidding at £360 his last bid was at 16.25hrs, e***3 proxy was placed at 15.53hrs.

E***3 bid was a proxy bid and won by one bid, they might have had an even higher proxy limit set.

Having said all that it seems a ludicrous ammount for a bus wheel as we used to call them, threw a few of them in the skip over the years lol

isn't 'plage' French for sea?


so 'automatic de plage'

means 'this convertible will fill with water when it rains'

Plage is beach.

But a nice thought anyway :lol:

BTW, Mer is sea, where as Merde is shit, you don't want to get those two muddled up :lol:

J'ai plongé dans la merde bleu clair
