Nick1368 got a reaction from Heirlooms in Auction warning
just wanted to give you heads up , be very careful when trying to buy coins on Auctions like the coin cabinet for example , a few people have admitted that they have been shill bidding on their own coins and they are not even ashamed of it .
I always looked at the coin cabinet and thought something doesn't feel right , now I know why .
one person who used to be a member of this forum admitted that he has been bidding on his own coins to make sure they don't go for a lower price than he bought them himself and he is so proud of his doing that he says he has no regrets and he would do it again and again .
Another guy said that there was fault with his keyboard and he accidentally bid like 20 times on a 2016 half sovereign which sold for nearly £1000 , and guess what ? the guy with the faulty keyboard who placed 20 bids on that coin , did not win it hahaha
Anyways be careful when buying/selling coins on auctions , there are dishonest disgusting people out there who would and are doing things like this .

Can’t say I am surprised, I have always assumed there is shill bidding in most online auctions. That’s why I always set my limit and once it’s reached, I leave the lot alone.
Fully agree, this practise is just wrong but not sure this will change anytime soon unfortunately

Aye - I am quite aware of the person that has been doggedly pursuing this.
Its not new. Only thing is the person we are discussing is different to the one you mean as far as I know. And this person is just drawing attention to the situation more than it deserves.
However I think @Nick1368 was right to highlight it in the forum now that we have a recorded public admitting of wrong doing.

In this instance the shill bidder has admitted in public that he was doing that AND that he would do so again if his coins go for below his buying price. And this was only today.

Hi @Nick1368 thanks for sharing on here. Every time this happens on the coin cabinet auctions I then see posts justifying how these are correct prices and they wont go lower. I then see someone on here or Facebook struggling to sell for half the price sometimes. Three graces was the best example of this.

That’s the trouble with new- fangled technology like the keyboard, it malfunctions all the time, I always seem to end up with multiple items of food in my store cupboard due to the keyboard sticking whilst doing my internet shop and only the other day I sent over £2,500,000 to @Roy for an item I bought from him that cost £250 and @ChrisSilver bagged a couple of grand off me when I renewed my Silver Forum subscription- something really needs to be done about the unreliability of keyboard technology 🙄

I guess they mastered the trick , they bid just enough to push the price without winning it , the whole point is you should not bid on your own item , simple as that .
