ranchhopper Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Looks like they sell everything on ebay you will be bidding against the rest of the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdog Posted January 16, 2015 Author Share Posted January 16, 2015 Anymore,with auction companies all getting internet bidding,it's getting to be that bad at local auctions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranchhopper Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 I know and I belong to another site that will actually ban you for posting auction link because of all the crying the members do when you alert others of an auction they may be bidding on.

farmer52 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 I know and I belong to another site that will actually ban you for posting auction link because of all the crying the members do when you alert others of an auction they may be bidding on.Yep, similar thing happened to me on another site. A person was looking for a part and I posted a link for eBay. Next day my post was deleted.If I am bidding on an item, I am not going to post the link or info. If I am not interested, then I will post for others to see (who may be interested).Isn't this what we are about....helping each other? 2 Quote Ken PRR Country and Charter member of the "Mack Pack" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranchhopper Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Exactly my thinking I wont post it if Im going to bid on it but will post it to help out others my way of thinking is I have a price which I may move up a bit if I really want the item and if out bid there is usually another one to bid on another day.

j hancock Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 The ever increasing auction fees and premiums are taking a lot of the fun out of it for me.Don't get me started on "bidders" that "help" a live auction or phantom internet bidders...

ranchhopper Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 I used to buy a lot of military surplus it was real funny when I put in a proxy bid if I won the lot it was usually one bid under my set price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmer52 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I used to buy a lot of military surplus it was real funny when I put in a proxy bid if I won the lot it was usually one bid under my set price.Same thing happened to me. I was unable to attend so I phoned in a bid. And to my surprise, I bought the item for the same price as my highest bid. Very interesting!I hate buyer's premiums, live internet auctions, and "silent/phantom" bidders.

41chevy Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Last Feb I sold 5 of my Mopars at the Atlantic City auction, on my Challenger, there was one "gentleman" who kept upping the bid every time it lagged (good for me and the auction co) The last day of the auction he was in the office filling out commission forms. I called him Mr Shill but it was over his head. Upped the price on my Challenger by almost $15,000. Funny thing the next B.J auction in Florida, my Duster was listed as a 1 of 1 which it was, but also as numbers matching. It wasn't sold as a numbers matching in A.City. I blew up the 340 the first weekend I owned it. So it was not numbers matching car since it was 3 days old. Paul.

fxfymn Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Yep, I firmly believe that most of the auctions on eBay are not honest. It is way too easy for the seller to shill the auction which in turn makes other sellers believe their items are worth more than they should really sell for.

thomastractorsvc Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 since you are talking about fraud auctions, just check out this onehttp://www.ebay.com/itm/Mack-R-Model-Day-Cab-Semi-/201269301374?forcerrptr=true&hash=item2edc95d07e&item=201269301374&pt=Commercial_TrucksYou probably have seen truck already and according to the history it was sold a couple times and he has received feed back for at least two trucks that were sold but if you click on items for sale he has the trucks re-listed?
