E- bay shill- but still a bargain

I'm a bit of a gambler at times and took a chance on ebay item # 8385439785. Didn't spot it until just before going to work, logged back in at work right before the end of the auction I noticed I was no longer high bidder so bumped the bid up $10. I took a chance- lousy pictures and a seller with only 2 feedbacks but I had some coins tone nicely in the type of album shown- like I said a gamble. Well I won the auction but when I looked at the bidding history lo and behold someone ( another handle of the seller) bid my initial bid up to my maximum then retracted the last bid. I figured I'm screwed (check out the shills feedback) Being an honorable person with a contract I send off the money order never expecting to get anything in return and today in the mail the album came - Nice looking coins -I more than got my moneys worth- even the 45-s was the micro-s in beautiful shape. I have to leave positive feedback- I got more than I expected but should I turn the tables and become the screwee by leaving a feed back that makes it look like I got something really special and make this guy feel like he got screwed. I'm afraid if I do this the next bidder may get the wrong impression- comments?

New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

ITEM SOLD TOO CHEEP TRIED TO CHARGE $150.00 FOR SHIPPING THAT WOULD HAD BEEN $12
heh
If you want, leave his/her shipping address here and I will drive to his house and punch him/her.
I have nothing better to do this weekend anyways.

Glad you got good stuff, though.
