Shill alert?

I think I'll pass on this
The seller has a total of two feed back. One of those is private and the other is for a $3.58 item.
Twenty-five of the twenty-nine bids on this expensive coin are from someone (shill?) with 0 feedback!
Whats wrong with this picture, or am I being too suspicious?

I never thought that growing old would happen so fast.

I think bidder i**e (0) placed multiple bids to try to beat a previous bidder, t**n (44).
None of the bidders has a majority of their bids with this seller, so doesn't look like a shill, at least at a distance.
As far as the seller, who knows............
......I collect old stuff......

I thought about that too. You may be right. The whole thing just doesn't look or feel right to me in my gut.

It says plugged on the holder.

From reading posts here, I have learned that if a seller doesn't include all relevant information in the description, he's being dishonest. And if he does, but doesn't include a picture illustrating that, he's being dishonest. Best I can tell, buyers want to be able to bid on auctions without reading the descriptions but they want all the information included in the descriptions anyway. Or something like that.

That 0 feedback bidder has bid on 15 items with 11 different sellers... he/she has placed 144 bids on those 15 items! I don't think they've grasped the eBay thing yet!
