Multiple bids from the same buyer on Ebay, WHY?

The seller can see the names of the bidders. Other bidders are not privy to that information, as they have no reason to need it.

True, however go look at the auction, the public aliases are the same for the same bidders. I noticed it awhile back when bidding on other stuff.
Thank God someone is bidding this up, :applaud:
I wouldn't even use ebay unless I really needed the cash, too much hassle!
ARCADIAC!

Sounds like a tactic for them to try and get it at a lower value than your Buy It Now by eliminating that option for other buyers.
I know I would not put in a max bid higher than the BIN, I would have just bought it before then.
Arcadiac:
Wasn't that concerned with BIN/reserve, just found it odd that the same bidder was listed again and again.
Don't get me wrong I would have liked to get the BIN price but I didn't really expect to.
ARCADIAC!

I sometimes watch items I want to sell, just to see if they're worth selling.

I watch all kinds of stuff just to see what they go for. Usually doesn't mean I'm interested.
Heck, I've watched twenty or so vintage Blythe dolls just to see what insane prices people will pay for them.
