Seller friends bidding
The bidding pattern on an item I’m interested in looks very suspicious. Is this the seller having friend(s) bid it up?

What exactly is suspicious about those bids? Many bidders bid in small increments when trying to overtake a higher bidder or to discover a reserve price, or just to raise a maximum bid amount.
Any bid could look like a shill bid to another bidder. Including your bid.
