Also as I have seen others talk about there is the new tactic you put a massive bid on with an account you have just started if the win price suits them they buy it if not they ditch the account pain in the ass you have to relist and then others think you are bidding them up and that seller is the bad guy if you can't make contact in the first 2 3 days you know they have done it to you.

Why is it that when you list something for sale on Ebay everyone immediately thinks your desperate to sell it at some ridiculously low price?
