Strange Ebay Bidder

I recently got outbid by an Ebay user with a -1 feedback rating. The -1 was from an NPB last June, and the user has no completed transactions since. Now all of a sudden the user has bid and won approximately $8,000 in coins during the past week:

I wonder what's up? Is the user going on a buying spree for kicks to tick off a bunch of coin sellers? It will be interesting to see how these transactions progress. Who knows, maybe she won the lottery!

    That 89 CC Morgan was a nice piece. Too bad it looks amateurishly cleaned. Otherwise it went for a steal of a price in that condition.

    If it really is cleaned as I suspect, the net grade will make the bidder a loser by several hundred bucks.
    "Lenin is certainly right. There is no subtler or more severe means of overturning the existing basis of society(destroy capitalism) than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and it does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."

    Yeah, looks like ebay seller "bigbootie" cleans his coins a little too harshly! image
