nekdut Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 Ah, u12. I bought a new Burton UP from him a long time ago. It actually was a pretty good transaction. I wonder where this guy gets all of his Alpine burton gear. He seems to have a ton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-Sub Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 is that the dude that had 8 million oxygen boards a couple seasons ago? Id bet a good amount of money there's a shill bidder in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 I saw this a few days ago, it had a buy it now price of 149.00, I think. Shill bidding is hard to prove, you need to know the history of the supected shiller and the seller and if there's a pattern. It's not unusual for people to become emotionally attached to an item and pay way more then it's worth. I just sold a set of vintage potentiometers for more then twice what I normally get for them, so it does happen, and is a pleasent suprise for the seller :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big mario Posted November 26, 2005 Report Share Posted November 26, 2005 I had someone named "stinky powder ma" pop up in a few auctions in the past, drive the price up in the last hour, and disappear. They did not seem to really want the item, but that is speculation on my part. I always felt it was a little fishy. mario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
