Default Re: ------ ebay up bidding --------

You can have a number of ebay accounts but what eBay looks for are bids that come from different User ID's that have the same IP address (Internet Protocol Address) Every Internet connection has a unique IP address. So even if you log out and log back in with a different user Id you're busted if you use the same computer. To really get away with it you need to have a different computer and a different Internet connection for each user ID. Way to much work for me.

It's as simple as using your work computer, or a friends
computer. It's all about the money.

Wonder what they think about me? I use three different accounts, two personal, one business. I buy on one personal account, sell on the other personal account. I both buy and sell on the business account. I use my business computer, my home computer, local library, other librarys when I'm out of town and several friends computers. All with different internet serices. I snipe in the last 3 seconds, I bid early. Only thing I don't do is jack my own auctions. Dont need to. The stuff is either valuable enough and gets enough exposure, or isn't worth anything so it's "good riddance" if it sells for a buck.

Long live the internet auctions!
