You can put your maximum bid in and it might be $100 and the item might sell for $80 without shill bidders. If shill bidders are in the auction and bidd you up to $95, then they have now cost you another $15. There is a loss here Mark and shill bidders do cost you more. Even though you are putting in your maximum bid, it isn't fair that shill bidders drive up the price.
