BAT needs to be investigated for bid wranglers, but not sure their EULA prevents it. I bought a 911 a fews years back (pre-pandemic) on BAT and paid too much at the time, but relatively cheap today. That said for the next year I could not make a bid without a new account popping up and bidding me up, made no difference what I tried to buy. It is common now for buyers to assert they are OUT after their last crazy bid, I think this is to mitigate the platform bidders.

Simple IP and browser ID fraud checks during account creation would catch the bulk of this, as other large online retailers do, but suspect that the auction aspect motivates BAT.
