Been listed before but did not sell (think there was a reserve????) |

BTW, anyone actually know anything about ebay user 'garonemartin'? I got outbid once before on an ebay item by him/her, but as a member since Febrary 06 he still has zero feedback...anyone else think this might be a shill or something? |

| Check to see if the auctions were run by the same person. Feedback is not exchanged when the buyer and seller do not want people to see a sellers name in the feeedback section all the time. Also the seller may have two addresses and by using his wife's credit card a person can establish two accounts and use one to bid items up for themselves. They should get smart and use the other name and establish a feedback, that way you'd never know. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I've seen garonemartin bid on several Ovations that I was watching or bidding on. Might be a shill or might just be a tightwad like me. It does seem like he was bidding on some high-end items, though. |

Location: Chehalis, Washington | Mark, I thought of that. The trouble is, as often as he bids on stuff, he would have won something by now, and the only reason for not having a feedback score at all is intentionally avoiding it. Just fishy... |
