Kinda reminds me of when I bought afew Slot tokens on ebay awhile back, people who bid against me I didn't know. The same items came on afew other times too but the ones who bid against me didn't bid on them.

One wonders if some who put items on eBay don't have friends up the bid until somebody else takes the bid away. I'm not saying this in this case but it has been known to happen.
