‘Deadbeat bidders’ dog eBay sellers
Watch out sellers! Anonymity has it's drawbacks. Sellers are now making the fake bids and leaving town...not so good. Right now, the focus is on Cisco routers, but it could be a trend. Some think it's the bored children of today's society. Others think:
"But the source who compiled extensive research on deadbeat Cisco auctions believes something much more serious is happening. He believes the “Cisco Raider” is purposefully ruining auctions by the competition to force bidders towards his own auctions, driving up prices and raising profits."
In any case, it makes for an interesting problem. Any solutions out there?
