Yourself?

Check out this auction, it started at $0.99 and is now $199!, but there are only 4 bids, BUT THEY ARE ALL FROM THE SAME BIDDER!

I bought this DVD for $85 about a year ago, and I thought I was paying too much then, but at least I didn't bid against myself into the hundreds...

Actually I think the bidder was just trying to get to the reserve, but it just looks ridiculous if you don't take that into consideration...

Hi Guys

As Franzoni would say.. it might have been a Shill bidder, to jack up the price... Hmmmmmm.

I hope I quoted you correctly Franzoni.
