This is catching: I'm beginning to refer to it as "fleabag". Did you see that the ex-CEO of Fleabag is running for Governor of California! FRANC

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.

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. _____ Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2009 19:28:36 -0500 From: [email protected] Subject: Re: [MOPO] Heritage-Billings Gazette article To: [email protected] 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.

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.
