Default eBay will be happy either way...

He still has to pay them...

My guess? If you turn up with 41K he will sell. ;-)

Default True, but he can put it back on one more time for free.

ebay's policy:

Shill bidding is the deliberate use of secondary registrations, aliases, family members, friends, or associates to artificially drive up the bid price of an item. (This is also known as "bid padding.")

Shill bidding is strictly forbidden on eBay. eBay members found shill bidding may receive warnings or indefinite suspensions of their accounts.

Default Many dodgy goings on

and I don't see them acting very hard. Some sellers seem to have an endless supply of rare but popular and expensive <i>used</i> parts. Makes one wonder no?

You'd say eBay only have to check their history to see what's what. F.i., some sell <i>used</i> alu mirrors every week! How can that be kosher? Yet apparently they can keep on doing that without a problem.

Imho that's even worse...

Default A8s are not popular cars in the US. Resale value depends on demand.

All used A8s are cheap. With all due respect to Greenie, the only people who buy them new are those who light their Macanudos with C-notes. Everyone else waits till they come off lease after 3 years of pampered corporate exec use and saves themselves 40 thousand dollars.
