Something smells fishy. Bet top bidder is a shill bidder, then offered for a grand under what the other ad is for.

I got asked the other day why I had my car advertised for 1 dollar and the other was 4.5k. And what would happen to the car if it sold twice.I pointed out one was classified that pointed to the $1 reserve Subby

yeah.i suppose if someone hits buy now on the bigger price one, then they just withdraw the one that finishes later.problem is they'll annoy the people that have bid.I would be pissed off if I was winning an auction that got withdrawn!I;m trying to work out just how "fishy" this is, and probably i still have nothing to lose by throwing a bid in.!

yeah.i've since seen that question, thanks.I just wonder if the sale will go through if he only gets $10k or something, given the price he's looking for on the other listing!

I have been offered heaps of cash prices to withdraw mine. I thought na bugger it its just not fair to withdraw.

There's no way it will reach his reserve, and if you do bid you'll get an e-mail saying "Buyer didn't go through with trade" within 10 kminutes of it closing. Keep us informed if you do decide to bid, we'll pillary him if he's a crook!
