Many vendors buy directly from CBid because the prices can be lower than what they have to pay wholesale prices. I do not believe CBid knowingly uses false bidders.

FurFace,

Rest assured that forum users drgInc and rfenst are bots and simply respond favorably regarding Cbid to the content of any other messages in a thread.

I don't see any solid evidence of dishonesty here, but I have filed a complaint about some shill bidding on ebay a couple of decades ago. Took a lot of evidence for them to suspend the two involved.

Yup. If you don’t outbid your opponent, you are a loser.

Fur Face,

There are no false bidders or shill bidders or Bots.

But there are a few eBay flippers (lighters, ash trays, etc) and several

small stores owners (liquor, grocery, etc) who buy stuff to resell at their retail outlets.

Years ago we were wondering who was this dude buying all the freaking lighters..........and we found the guys eBay site.

Think he may have moved to Amazon.........he is big time now.

I don't frequent the auctions like I used to, but whenever I see the lighter guy- I try to bid the prices up a bit.
