Buymyemu Valued Member United States 215 Posts	Posted 05/04/2016 10:30 pm I just won a coin (only $8) from a VERY active coin seller 373,000 feedback at 100% Something seemed off on the bidding (I buy this coin often), so I looked at the bidders below me. This seems strange. Edited by Buymyemu 05/04/2016 10:36 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Buymyemu Valued Member United States 215 Posts	Posted 05/04/2016 10:32 pm on second look, I think this says 620 bid retractions, but zero with this seller. But, What the heck? Report this Post to the Staff
Andrew99 CCF Advertiser United States 1533 Posts	Posted 05/05/2016 07:22 am This looks highly unusual, 15% bid retractions. Also 61% with one seller looks odd too, but people have their favorite online stores, so its not impossible. Report this Post to the Staff
Debrajc Pillar of the Community United States 4211 Posts	Posted 05/05/2016 07:48 am I also have a favorite seller....but 620 bid retractions, really? wow If it wasn't for that part of it the 61% could easily be explained. I could purchase 15 things and 9 with the same seller easily. Report this Post to the Staff
