Bumping bids up on ebay by the seller !!!

[perpetualboredom]

I can accept that also JRC x But accusations of drug taking makes me sick to the stomach and there is no need for it

My humble apologies. The question you asked clearly showed you don't use eBay much- yet you decided to argue and tell everyone else how you knew better, even someone who runs a business from eBay. I formed the conclusion you must either be retarded or on crack - I am sorry if I chose the wrong option.

At least you have accepted that on this subject at least, everyone does actually know better than you. Which must have been hard for you to take.

So have we decided its the former rather than the latter?

Deluded I can accept thanks mate . But the suggestion of drugs is very out of order . Call me a nutty old craftsman by all means or a crafty malt drinker but drugs are for fools that couldnt make a sandwich without help PS:

Feel sorry for people that dont drink !! When they get up in the morning they know thats the best they are Gonna feel all day lol ....

Alcohol is a drug and, if you ask any copper on duty on a saturday night, the worst drug of all.

I myself use cannabis but don't drink, so on a saturday night I'm mellow, chilled, a little hungry and a great sandwich maker, but never violent or obnoxious or sleeping around with other drunks spreading STI's.

Check out Bill Hicks Drugs and Evolution on youtube and get off your high horse. I would link to it but it contains some swearing that would upset the moderators.

A warning for all those who bid early, I recently sold a cue where my high bidder retracted straight after placing his bid, this left me knowing exactly what my second highest bidder was prepared to go up to (which was a lot more than the cue was worth), I could have quite easilly got someone to bid it up to it's max, and i'm sure there are people out there that abuse this loophole!
I have also had a lot of second chance offers on cues where it is clear they've bid the item up as they are usually within an hour of the auction ending! To me the second chance offer should be set at your highest bid before the winning bidder started bumping it up?

yes I have saw that happen, I was bidding on a cue, got out bid then winner bidder retracted bid and then rebid under my high bid, that's shill bidding at its best
