A zero feedback (well, now a one feedback) seller is auctioning a nice coin. There are five zero, or one feedback bidders. I'm not making any accusation of shill bidding, but it's very unusual to say the least. Looking at the bid history is hilarious.

Good point, and I never even considered that, but it looks real to me.
Rest in Peace

Surprisingly, a brand new zero feedback shiller, uh, I mean bidder, enters the picture, and miraculously bids it up to over 1K.
