Sure looks like it. It's definitely the same coin with the same rim nick at 3 o'clock.

Shill bidding is a Federal crime. You could contact ebay and if an investigation proves you correct ebay may suspend their account.

It's the exact same picture. What a moron. I guess some people don't think we're very observant.

I've seen this happen many times. There was a particular Bust Quarter I had my eye for a few weeks this winter. It was "won" and re-listed at least 3 times in one month. Needless to say after I was "outbid" the first time, I was only a spectator.
Report it if you want to. There so much of this going on there is no way to stop it. I liken it to police busting drug dealers. It's like swatting mosquitoes in a swamp.

Is the complaining effective to ebay?

When a ebay seller has a %98 feedback rating and 3 negative and 1 neutral feedback in the past 12 months, I always stay away from those sellers.

Yes.. I agree with wireman09, with 98.4 % feedback, I don't even look at something like that.

Let's see, the winning bidder's bid activity is 100% with this seller. The only explanation is shill.
@jack jekel - you didn't want that one anyways. The fresh scratches on the obverse would be the only thing you see. The shill did you a favor.

Agreed! And besides, now that we know what kind of person this guy is, who wants to give them money anyway?

Quote:shill bidding = more money for ebay in final value fees. good luck reporting. Oh my lord... seriously? You think ebay doesn't care about shill bidding? They will deal with it in a split second if they have hard evidence. The problem is, hard evidence is well, hard.

The "hard" evidence may perhaps be found in this topic. If as many different ebay members as possible report the same topic: " https://goccf.com/t/146390#1324335 " perhaps notice will be taken. In the meantime, let's ALL ask the seller a question: "Who is your shill bidder? Oh, you can follow our investigation of your questionable selling practices here: https://goccf.com/t/146390#1324335 " If the seller gets a dozen "questions" from a dozen different people ... Seller is: passion4mathews1987
