Looks like this seller has been bidding on his/her own items with another account.

I noticed the same Dodgy-ness on lots of sales of gear on eBay. There is definite "gaming" of the prices. I was seriously looking at large coolers on there but saw the same gaming going on.

I'm only miffed that prices rose across the board at alquip on all items. I was really ready to jump on a 120L stockpot! :p
 
Keg Listing

Oh this user snapped at me, now im getting nasty email LoL.

I said "You should stop bidding on your own items. "
They replyed "Be carefull what you accuse me of. Its people like you that cause dramas on ebay and give it a bad name. user "GRAHAMINVIC" should not part of ebay. I recommend that all who read this to boycot this user due to false accusations made by this user. I am also going to report your slander to ebay. "

They also added it to the Questions and Answers down the bottom of the page. And a stack more that they aren't adding to Q's and A's.

This would sugest guilty even more.
 
BOOM item #320391174417 has been reported

Reason for Report: Fraudulent listing

Detailed Reason: Seller is using other accounts to inflate item price (Shill Bidding)

Comments: Suspicious bid history

edit: Would everyone care to report one of this sellers' sale items?

Seem like this seller soon have the tittle - "No longer a registered user."

I'm wondering if the 2 accounts (seller/Buyer) are from the same IP?

One would assume so.
"shill" bidding is when you bid on your own items to push the price up.
