Any idea what's going on here?

Shill bidding, bid shielding?

I mean nothing's that rare, the Farmboy and Vader aren't double telescoping are they?

:shock:
There's been some strange ones on eBay lately but god knows what's going on there?
The fees he will have to pay to eBay are more than the figures are worth.

ha ha - that is just some silly silly bidding - no way will anyone pay over 20 quid for that little lot

Went for £1300 in the end! Bloody stupid if it's a genuine bid.

I've noticed a few odd ones as well.

Perhaps someone has something against the seller?

The orange haired Luke Bespin might be worth something, but £1,300 is a little strong.

wtf? How does that even happen?! Barely 20-30 quids worth there.
You might have a point with it being someone trying to **** the seller's auction but then why only this one and not the others.

His feedback seems okay, and the stuff he sells is varied. I have several 'attack accounts' on eBay to revenge neg people, maybe this is what someone is doing to him?

His other lot of 21 figures for 21 quid didn't seem too bad.

WOW :shock: WTF!

This was a definitely dodgy auction - I put in a bid of £1290 as the high bidder at that time had two bids, and he/she still had two bids as a high bidder. I've just received a second chance offer! I think I'll politely decline that, or just offer him £12.90 for the figures!

:shock: Why?? I just had someone send me a link to that auction- I put it down to the bidders being on crack!! Care to share :lol:

The top bidder had two bids in, therefore I put one in safe in the knowledge that I couldn't win it just to push it up some more! I am a complete arsehole!
