Bid idiot

I'm seriously thinking of having some fun with this Schmuck I really like the medal but it may be more fun to try to find his limit. I'm guessing that each bid is only a few dollars higher than the previous. image

  • There is NOTHING in their bid history or feedback history to suggest a shill bidder.

    You missed my joke. I was ribbing farthing as a "Shill."

  • You're right. I completely missed that. I hear "shill" thrown around so much sometimes I think people are confused as to the meaning, or how to determine whether or not it is happening.

    sorry for the mix-up.

    I'm not sure that he bids like an idiot, or at least not very often.
    Here's just a couple of his recent snipes.

    There's always the first time for a shill. Of course, as long as farthing knows what the item is worth , there shouldn't be a problem.

    Maybe he just lost his cool and can't keep a poker face about it

    He was just fishing for the first guys high bid. He'll be back at the end to snipe it.
