Does this auction look a little odd?

JP,

Do you smell a rat with the bidder who bumped the car by more than $6,000 in
one bid?

I always hate it when a supicious bidder pops in on an Auction like
that. But it's impossible to tell if they are legit or not. At least I
don't know of any way. It seems like Ebay should be able to compare
info and at least make sure that they aren't the same person as the one
running the auction. But it could always be a friend or a relative and
you'd never know. I NEVER do it when I'm selling something but I almost
ALWAYS feel like it's done to me. Especially when a zero or low
feedback bidder gets in my way.

That person also did some high bidding on this Studebaker:

It appears, they are looking for a 53/54 and have money to throw at
one. This person has been an Ebay member since 98 but has only 1
feedback. Strange, but not outside of reason I guess.

I have had good experiences buying from this Studebaker vendor.
