http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 3181096640 here's an interesting auction. new seller with 0 feedback, new bidders with 0 feedback, and it's going for a pretty high price. they even outbid David. wonder if he's set a new price trend?
Here is some speculation on why David Van Wie is buying up WBS's: Speculation#1 Junkyard build-a-car methode: If you buy 5 of type X car, in theory you will end up with 1 car in mint condition, looks great and that will hold up for years 2 cars that are not that "great" looking but are functional for the most part and can get you to work, back home and to the local hobby store. 1 pile of junk that is mostly scrap but still has a few good parts in it to sell. So he is buying multiple sets to create the best set possible for himself along with the supplements (ie 1 car in mint condition) and the rest in 3 book box sets(ie 2 cars, driveable but not the best lookers) with the supplements as add-ons for those who only need a specific item (ie left over parts and scraps)
Dude.. they were trying to shill you... make sure you had your max bid out and then try to bring you higher....
Tell them thanks, but you don't want it, and then if they offer it to you for a little less, you know it was a shill.
If we are to assume that David was being shilled with that auction then it is safe to assume that there was shilling when:
