Is this shilling?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CALL-OF-DUTY-3-ON-Wii_W0QQitemZ260143088654QQihZ016QQcategoryZ112746QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I was just looking at this item and since the seller combines postage I decided to look at her other Wii games.

Funny thing is that the chap who is currently winning this item also happens to be the current winner of nearly all the items the seller has listed!!!!!:confused:

So I checked his rating and lo and behold it's simply amazing how many items he appears to have bought from this seller in the past couple of weeks, we aren't talking one or two here but tens of games.

Anyone think he is a real buyer?

Do you think it would be safe bidding or do you think the buyer is just pushing up the prices for others?:mad:

    If you look at his selling rep it is from lots of diff buyers. He's buying the games cheap and selling them "buy it now" for more. i.e. buy for £20 and sell at £30.

    Looks more like canny trader than shill.
