Came across this seller & noticed that she(he) sold this phone before to themselves? Mmmmm
What do you think...................
Dodgy Seller
Looks like he/she gave themselves + feedback (the only one)...

This was mentioned in the Nokia thread on Grabbit and was responded to, but what does this look like? (Apart from it looking like a con?)

Who's robbing who? Is it definitely two ID's and one unlucky loser?0 -
looks to me like shill bidding and I reckon they were seeing how far the '0' feedback bidder would go which is why there are so many bids... the '0' feedbacker could be a scammer but why behave in this way, it is totally bizaree!!
very odd!!Official DFW Nerd 210

I'm just learning about shill bidders etc Rachie, but whoever bought that phone might have been a newbie
I'd love to report them but don't know how .....yet!
I've followed the trail and somewhere there's a loser. Just can't figure out if it was the buyer? It's odd though and looks like a shill whatsit.0 -

I reckon aslisara and medinator are the same person and there's some shill bidding going on judging by how the bids have been placed.
Medinator also has a poor feedback rating so maybe trying to create a new account with better f/b but something dodgy is certainly going on as medinator has received f/b from aslisara and vice versa, yet if you look at aslisara's account there is nothing listed in f/b left for others

It's really obvious when you study feedback isn't it?
I'd hate to think a newbie had paid that amount of money for that phone considering how cheap they were though. Unless it wasn't a newbie?
Looks like medinator isn't even paying for what he/she's won and got another negative. Why do they bother?
Foolish people. 0
