I wonder if these guys know that Craig's Legal team looks out for just this kind of smack?? I am not saying it is true or not just that with all the legal talk these days you have to watch out.... IMO let the auction results do the talking. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif"Watch the auctioneer take bids, some he points with his hand open some with fingers held tight....... Spotters do the same thing..... these are real and fake bids........ the poor fish doesn't have a chance" https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif

Could something like that really go unchecked?

It's like Las Vegas. Do you really think the best card dealers are just people who can throw cards out to people. There is a lot of "slight of hand" in card dealing. I would imagine there are similar tricks of the trade with auctioneers as well. You think they are hired just because they can talk fast?

I can see guy's bidding there own cars up or buying them back if their going to take a big hit but in this day & age things become pretty transparent when they become so well known.

I cant imagine someone risking there reputation and a lucrative business messing around like that but........
Thats just me.

I always said if your your going to risk it all you better be able to retire when your done.

That open and close doesnt happen at non reserved auctions and if its a reserved auction,its done all the time. Its not illegal to do what they are doing. I have talked about this before but everybody got angry. SHHHHHHHHH dont tell anybody.. Same thing with e-bay.

Pretty cool that Jesse James was writting some cool stuff on that site.. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif Pretty straight up guy
