You really are a complete donkey! Did it take you an entire day to
put this response together? It's funny that you call eBay "fleabay"
and there are only two people on this forum who do that, and one is
a friend of mine, and the other is insanely jealous of me. I wonder
which one of them helped you write your reply?
Maybe you could focus more on your buddies who are currently in the
news, and have openly admitted to bidding on lots of their own items
(and it has not been made clear whether they bid on items they
themselves own, but I imagine that will come out in the discovery
process. Yet you are not interested in those events at all, and you
are obsessed with events of five to ten years ago.
Please crawl back under your rock. I would continue the discussion
with you, but it feels like I am having a battle of wits with an unarmed man.

Let me see if I understand what you are saying:
Ten years ago you asked fleabay for permission to do an action which
you are totally against (or do you still allow employee bidding in
your auctions?) and were granted this permission.
This "employee" (really a friend) wins LESS than ONE ITEM A WEEK
(one tenth of one percent as per your statement) and this sets off
red flags for fleabay who then suspends your account?
That is really pretty incredible. How was fleabay able to
differentiate between this person who won less than one item a week
and some of your other friends who bid on and win 5, 10, 15 or more
items a week (for example dealers like Posteritati)?
While all accusations of shill bidding should be checked into (this
included with Heritage), it seems highly unlikely that fleabay
decided to suspend your account based on a single bidder who won
less than an item a week as compared to your legions of followers
(several of whom you say only bid on your auctions) that win many,
many times that amount weekly.

More lies. I was suspended from eBay five years ago because an
employee of theirs told me ten years ago that one of my employees
could bid on the auctions, as long as he had a friend do the bidding
for him on his account, and as long as he was really purchasing what
he bid on. Four years later a new eBay employee discovered that
account and suspended us.
I explained all that happened to eBay (including the fact that the
employee was an actual collector who bought one tenth of one per
cent of what we sold), and they reinstated us.
Over THREE YEARS later we left eBay and it had everything to do with
the 40% rise in fees and giving buyers the ability to blackmail the
sellers, and NOTHING to do with the incorrect suspension.
Now how do you equate that to a gigantic auction house being exposed
for placing massive number of bids (and for winning around one in
100 of the items bid on) that resulted in tens of thousands of
bidders paying far more than they would have had the auction never bid?
Crawl back under your rock with your other horror buddies.

It is definitely getting a lot more play than the time Bruce was
suspended for employees bidding in his auction.
That caused Bruce to leave fleabay (so that he couldn't get busted
again?), but Heritage has already done that.
Maybe Heritage needs to start offering free t-shirts to bidders in
their auctions to get back in good graces with their bidders.
