Thank you for the reply.

I will look into that. I also discovered that the seller uses the private listing - bidders' identities protected option. I don't mind a seller using that option for fixed pricing selling (buy it now) but I think it's very shady practice to protect family and friends from using their accounts to drive up the prices.

While Upay claims that shill bidding is illegal, they claimed in one of their official replies on the private listing that 95% of claims of shill building were legit. Why wouldn't they? They get a bigger fee as prices increase.

Now I'm wondering if the seller will ban me from his future auctions if I don't accept his second chance offers.
