Thanks. I didn't know the terminology. I've never bid on anything. I agree it does sound fishy but wouldn't the seller bid a lot higher to make people think it was worth more? And why isn't he showing the interior? Also ,the back looks like it is sitting kind of low.

Shill bidding is bidding that artificially inflates the price of the auction, ie the seller bidding on his own item under a different name. While abhored on eBay, the practice is accepted at dealer car auctions, where half the time, you're bidding against the coke machine in the corner.
