Default Acceptable Selling Practice

I have noticed an increase in specific selling activity I believe maybe against the RCU rules. Lately I have witnessed several of these “sales”.

Typically the seller offers an item at a discounted price, then waits for the scores of buyers to frantically “bid up” the item’s selling price. Two recent examples are ************** $35 includes shipping and ************** $25 includes shipping. There is a huge difference between the asking price (opening bid) and final price.

Please check the initial asking prices, look at the various offers, then check the final selling price for yourself.

In my opinion the seller is running an RCU auction selling to the highest bidder when he decides the bid is high enough.
Looks like a scam to me....but you decide. At least you are now aware of this marketplace activities.
