    aparently these are very hard to get as they are in such high demand. Maybe they are looking into selling them on at a profit??

    perhaps her daughter, wants to make sure she gets one for christmas this year, and has hijacked her mums account?

    for an ebay newbie, theyve won alot of auctions within a couple of hours of each other, and also alot from the same person. prob hedging their bets bidding on lots of items, not realising they have to buy them all?

    i know the reason!

    its the same with the xbox 360 auctions.

    the bidder is not happy that they cannot get hold of these anywhere except ebay at a premium price.

    so they are AUCTION WRECKING!

    definitely, by the time the seller realises they've been 'had' it will be too late to relist for Christmas.
    This is such a spiteful thing to do. Ebay need to clamp down on auction wreckers by limiting the number of things a person can bid on.
    But it would also punish genuine buyers too.

    Yes, she won 90 of those Barbie styling heads including her multiple buy-it-now purchases in a 24 hour period!!!!

    hmmmmmm. 90 x £40 ish average cost = £3600 ish. I don't think she will be paying for them - do you???

    Ebay have for once worked at a reasonable speed as she's been naru'd now.
    The sellers will get back their FVF but will struggle to sell before Christmas and lets face it no one will want them afterwards.
    How awful.
