Shill bidding on Red Donkey Kong on eBay? You decide.

These 3 games were listed together a few weeks back:
1) Red Donkey Kong
2) Popeye
3) Williams Multigame

Each sold last time if memory serves, but then were reposted with same crappy pictures. I believe there was a thread on here about the red DK.

So the auction for the DK ends tonight at $859.90. The high bidder is someone with a feedback rating of 3. In the past 30 days, the high bidder has only bid on items since the auction for these 3 games has been running, and everything this bidder has bid on looks remarkably similar to all the other items the seller currently has for sale.

High bidder 30 day bid history:

Items seller is selling:

Of course ebay has made it hard to know for sure, but the evidence seems to be pointing that direction.

So if anyone here bid on the red DK, and recently received a 2nd chance offer, beware.
 
Ebay won't do anything about. I've come across this many times and always report. I get the same generic bullshit message from them every time.

I never really cared about shill bidding.. If im willing to only pay $xxx for a game, thats all im gonna pay.. not a cent more..

If the guy shills it for too high, he just gets stuck with it.

It just sucks if you are the high bidder and you end up paying $800 for a game you should have won for $400.
