What is so special about this listing? A person should be able to get these dollars at face . Am I missing something?

I don't know why a legitimate buyer bid that much(although it looks like they did) but the reason it got to the legitimate buyers top bid is a MASSIVE amount of shill bidding, which seems to be going on with most of this sellers items.

The shill bidder has bid on 813 items, yet has only 1 feedback...and 100% of his bids have been with this particular seller.

This seller is wasting their time and money. Everything they have starts at a cent, gets a bid if they're lucky. I don't understand people who do this on ebay. shills them up but what a waste of time. Even after they sell those dollars, probably still losing Every day. Intriguing that they're auctioning cdn 20$ bills for 17.50 cdn.

Needs someone to tell them to stop the madness, absolute waste of time.

Well, the shill strategy worked this time as someone bid $10 each for an item my LCS has trouble selling for $1.

The photos are tricky, but the coin on the right looks like a small jewel variety of a nicer grade...

I randomly went through 15+ pages of sold items for this seller and every single one of them has the same shill bidder, on items as low as $.50. There's 962 cases of fraud here. Bobby?
