Yikes! That's the most horrible bid sheet I've ever seen. Brings to mind a song from when I was a teenager by The Jam:
Beat surrender - Come on boy, come on girl Succumb to the beat surrender All the things that I care about (are packed into one punch) All the things that I’m not sure about (are sorted out at once)
And as it was in the beginning, so shall it be in the end That bullsh!t is bullsh!t, it just goes by different names
All the things that I shout about (but never act upon) All the courage and the dreams that I have (but seem to wait so long) My doubt is cast aside, watch phonies run to hide The dignified don’t even enter in the game
And if you feel there’s no passion No quality sensation Seize the young determination Show the fakers you ain’t foolin’ You’ll see me come runnin’ To the sound of your strummin’ Fill my heart with joy and gladness I’ve lived too long in shadows of sadness
This type of activity will always be the ultimate cap to Ebay's growth. It's not the wonderful free market that it's hyped up to be. It's the best thing out there, but it will never be indispensable or ubiquitous.
Stop apologizing ble blah rosey days are few it's time we ble bla blu blahed in a Town Called Malice.
50 kids singing along all would be singing different songs. I think I went and read the real lyrics and they didn't make any sense at all. But, a great song.

Beat surrender -
Come on boy, come on girl
Succumb to the beat surrender
All the things that I care about (are packed into one punch)
All the things that I’m not sure about (are sorted out at once)
And as it was in the beginning, so shall it be in the end
That bullsh!t is bullsh!t, it just goes by different names
All the things that I shout about (but never act upon)
All the courage and the dreams that I have
(but seem to wait so long)
My doubt is cast aside, watch phonies run to hide
The dignified don’t even enter in the game
And if you feel there’s no passion
No quality sensation
Seize the young determination
Show the fakers you ain’t foolin’
You’ll see me come runnin’
To the sound of your strummin’
Fill my heart with joy and gladness
I’ve lived too long in shadows of sadness
"Town Called Malice" was one of my favorite songs as a teenager even though I didn't have the slightest clue what 75% of the lyrics were.

You mean other than the fact that the winner paid about $1,000 more than he would have without all the zero-feedback "bids" ?
The other suspicious auction

Isn't it counterproductive to win the auction your shill-bidding on?
