A warning to all shill bidders..., by peggy on Apr 20, 2010 14:37:29 GMT 1, HHHHMMMMM MAN SELLS SHONKY VAN, GETS CAUGHT, POLICE INVESTIGATE SALE OF VAN AND TURN UP ASSOCIATED PROBLEMS (SUCH AS SHILL BIDDING), MAN GETS IN TROUBLE AND WRIST SLAPPED.
PEGGY SEES THIS HAS HAVING ABSOLUTELY NO IMPACT ON SHILL BIDDING ON EBAY.
THAT BIG PILE OF PRINTS/FREE GIFTS/POSTERS ETC GATHERING UNDER BED'S OF PEOPLE CAN STILL BE SHILLED FOR AN EXTRA £20 HERE AND THERE. AND MOUNTAINS OF PRINTS PEOPLE HAVE HOARDED AWAY TO MAKE THEM MULTI MILLIONAIRES WILL ALL STILL BE VERY SHILLABLE. YOU ARE ALL SAFE, AND EVERYBODY'S BRILLIANT PLANS TO BECOME RICHER THAN DERRICK TROTTER ARE UNDER NO THREAT BY THOSE EVILS AT EBAY.
BIGGER THREAT TO SHILL BIDDING IS BIG ICELANDIC VOLCANO ASH TRAVELING TO AMERICA AND ENGULFING EBAY HQ

I speed read the article, not sure this means the end of shill bidding.Maybe just the end of shill bidding from the same pc? Will it stop friends bidding items up? Doubtful

A warning to all shill bidders..., by rsj on Apr 20, 2010 14:43:28 GMT 1, Don't auction houses do this? (They're allowed to bid up to the reserve price.)
They also sometimes bid on their own items way above the reserve price, unofficially of course, but everyone knows that...
