All-Star Champion's League Autographed Back Packs By Nfinity~

[12stepCheermom]

At first I thought it was 12 y/o fan girls about to be beaten by their parents.

Now I'm feeling like its a bidding war between the oil barons of Dubai or something.

But it's for a good cause so if you have more money than sense... I'm not gonna hate. Carry on!

People are trolling. Look at the bid history. It jumped from $5,000 to $10,000

and the $1000, $2000, $5000, and $10000 bids all came from the same user.

There is no way

Unless someone is thinking its like that episode of Friends where Joey ended up with the boat...because he thought you guessed the worth....

There is no way

And it looks like the same person bid like 5 times in a row multiple times, unless there's several people with usernames that start and end with the same letter.

$14,100... :jawdrop:

 

[ErinS]

I would guess that the ACTUAL bid for the bookbag is $178. Based on the users that bidded that have legitimate ebay user feedback and ratings.

Everyone else is just a troll

 

[kristenthegreat]

The other ones are in ranges of $300-400 for top spot.

Unless there's some Princess in the Middle East who loves cheer and just wants a new backpack for school.

Definitely think it's a troll.

But on ebay you can end up bidding multiple times in a row.

If you enter a bid, ebay puts the lowest bid that works. So for instance if the current bid is $100 and you enter $500, ebay will put "$101" or something as your bid. If someone else comes along and bids $300, ebay will automatically bump yours to $301 and tell them that they didn't bid high enough. So it looks like you bid $101 and $301 right in a row, but someone else bid and yours just automatically trumped theirs. Basically you go in and say "I want this. The most I'll pay is $1,000." And ebay keeps bidding for you until it reaches $1,000 and then notifies you that you are no longer the highest bidder. So in the end it looks on the screen like you outbid yourself several times, when you were actually just outbidding someone else automatically.

All that being said, I think it's probably just people who think they are funny.

Side story: I accidentally bid $10,000 on some concert tickets once because I was trying to type $100.00 and missed the decimal! Thank god I only ended up paying $150 because the bidding didn't get very high, but I wasn't sure what I was going to do if it got much higher! I guess I would have had to email the seller...?

Ahh ok that makes a lot more sense, thanks for clarifying.

I looked at LL and they have the same thing going on as SE. Just on a smaller scale


All I know is, once it gets up the $15,000 someone is going to have to put in a credit card number....so that should nip all of this in the bud.

 

[cmpayne]

I just looked at some of the bids and some of them are on the automatic bidding thing that ebay has. A person can set it up so that every time another person bids, they automatically out bid them.

If that's the case, that person is gonna freak when they come back on and realize it's gone up to 14k...

 

[cheermommaRN]

The first mistake they made was not making this a verified auction. I have been an active seller/buyer since 2001. With high dollar items you can set the auction so only verified members can bid, or they have to enter a cc #, or have a certain amount of activity before bidding.
I predict this is either trolls and they will have to relist the items or Blu Ivy really wants a new backpack...

Just a thought-
Since the chosen charity is the one benefitting Bryce's Mom (Amy's Army, etc) it could very well be a business donating the money, who's president has a kid in cheer and will end up giving her the bag. Not so much bidding for the bag, but donating to the charity. My dad owns a company and I have asked him to do something similar to this, but on a much much much smaller scale. Most business have lots of money set aside for donations, charities, etc.

 

[FierceIsTheName]

ignore someone said this already

 

[cheernerd5678]

Dang those better be real diamonds not just rhinestones to pay that much.
(If anyone wants to throw thousands of dollars my way so I can cheer next year, feel free.....)

I sold a camera on eBay and the final bid was more than it really should have been. Same thing,the bidding went fast early on and then never changed. Not so surprisingly, the winner never paid.
