Came across a seller I think is shilling her auctions. I write to ebay and their response is that they dont have enough proof that this is happening. Tell me, does this sound like shilling:

Seller lists items. Two bidders continually bid on them--the only seller whose items they bid on. Bidder 1 has "16" feedbacks. ALL from this seller. Bidder 2 has "8" feedbacks, ALL from this seller. Seller leaves feedback, where mind you she is the SELLER, and puts to bidder 1 "received item just as described". Again as a SELLER she leaves following feedback to bidder 2: "fast shipping. Very nice seller". Hmmmm....

Bidders 1 and 2 have similiar e-mails to seller. Items won by these two bidders somehow show up in seller's listings a week later.

eBay says that there is no proof. Okey-dokey.....

And there's no proof that setting my hair on fire will make me scream, either.

I know this is probably a waste of time but I would ask eBay what they consider proof. I for one would love to know.
