I feel bad for this high bidder who will probably be the winner since it ends in 8 hours and everyone is asleep right now. Shill I mean, come on.....try to hide it at least. Check out the guy with the 1 feedback. All FB from the same seller.

I know the high bidder. He's trying to put together the spectrum set #d/10 which is a huge task. To put together the set would cost about the same as purchasing a Benz. I've sold 2 cards to him from this set and they were autographed jsy rookies. Normally I don't care about those who get shilled, but I kind of feel bad cos he's known to pay whatever for these cards. I can't contact him, because the contact member no longer allows it. Oh well, that's why you always have to snipe and watch your back I guess.

    You can still contact the bidder. Ebay will ask for a security number for you to add.

    This is what keeps popping up when I try to contact after using the security code.

    Attention!
    We have determined you are trying to contact an eBay member with whom you are not currently involved in an open transaction. For the protection of the eBay community, we sometimes block these types of communication. To prevent this occurrence from happening in the future, we recommend the following:


    If you are a seller, respond to all bidder questions before the auction ends.

    If you are trying to contact the seller of an item that has not yet ended go to the item page and click the “Ask seller a question” link.

    If you are the winning buyer of an item go to your My eBay page under the items I’ve Won section. Click the action drop down menu and choose the “contact seller” action.

    If you are a seller trying to contact your wining buyer, go to My eBay and under the Items I’ve Sold section, click the action drop down menu. Choose the “contact buyer” action.

    Reply to seller/bidder through personal email provider (if the sender has not hidden their email address).

    Thank you for your understanding.

    Thats the response I get when I try to contact someone, due to the new ebay identity protection.

    It is impossible to get ahold of someone now unless they are selling something, and you contact them with a question about the item, or you have dealt with them before and know their email address
