Another thing we are getting ready to experiment with is getting sellers kicked off of ebay via shill bidding. If you have ever noticed even big sellers do a little buying on ebay....whether it be shipping labels, jewelry for their wife or whatever. Well ebay has a search function where you can see everything that ebay user has bid on and more importantly WHAT THEY ARE CURRENTLY BIDDING ON. This takes time and can not always work but we have all our competitions contact information registered with ebay and paypal....all you have to do is buy something from them and BOOM you got their address, phone number and email.

Well we are going to make some buyers accounts via dial-up with the same exact information as our competitors except email of course and slight variation of phone number but still keeping the phone number within their area code used on ebay. We have been tracking some of our competitors bidding habbits and are going to start bidding on the auctions that they are bidding on and winning them. This won't work on the BIN style auctions only on the bidding format style.

Shill bidding doesn't work that way. You have to bid on their items. Not the items they are trying to win. You want to make it appear as if they are bidding on their own auctions listings to increase the bid amount. Do it incrementally and when you become the highest bidder immediately withdraw your last bid so you won't win the item. Use the same account to do this and do it on all of their auction listings. Obviously this can't be done on BIN listings.

Also, get the clone account seller-ready, and start listing VERO items.
