how can you be sure?

sorry about that

Where do i begin...

This site is a revelation regarding ebay activity http://www.goofbay.com/
Safe link.

I was bidding on an item and managed to place a bid just above the under bidder.

Another user then placed a bid more than mine.

Having outbid me they retracted thier bid which arousud my suspicions.

Checking the shillers bid history i discovered they had placed nunerous bids ALL on the sellers items, didn't bid on any other items only the sellers ,IE thier own items.

They had bid on items from the seller ranging from SV parts, mobile phones and video games.

All the shillers feedback, of 5, was from the seller.

They also had canceled 16 bids in the last six months.

Ebay is a great source for anything you need, but please check who's bidding against you.


RANT OVER.

For now.:D
