Against my better judgment, I recently placed a bid on a pair of shoes on ebay several hours prior to expiration of the auction (blame the playoffs). Sure enough, somebody outbid me and won the shoes. Now I have received a Second Chance Notice from ebay saying that I can have the item for my maximum bid. The previous winner of the item had around a dozen purchases in feedback, over a 4-year period.
Are these Second Chance Notices scams, or otherwise evidence of shill bidding? Or is this a fairly regular thing for ebay sellers to do?
