One thing I don't understand about this, just seems to make nonsense of the suspicion - why would a shill bidder keep incrementing until they WIN? I must be missing something obvious. -S. Hill, aka "shill", the only legitimate kind of shill bidder :)

Tonight I bid on "Robinson Crusoe on Mars" 40x60. At 8:18 tonight a buyer with the ID of samiam101 (0) feedback with approx. 2mins left in the auction. I came in again at 8:27 almost missing the auction. I was high at 105.01. From that bid until 9:05, that bidder bid 27 bids @ $2.00 per bid w/ 3 or 2m left in the extended auction until the bidder finally won it for $161.10. Now I'M like just about anyone else who takes loosing with winning, but in this case I believe it was not a bidder who never bid on any auctions in the past, but a shill bidder. Since you can not view auctions that have ended on Rich's site unless you bid or follow, I'm just curious how many others had an experience tonight with samiam 101 with (0) feedback!
