I have had my own auctions and have had (unknown to me bidders) step in at the oddest times to raise the price with strange bidding behavior. Sometimes I think folks just like to f*ck with the people that are serious about buying and they try to raise the price without having to buy the item. Auctions like this are great for your bottom line but it was also embarrassing, as I thought it may start look like shill bidding to people.

So, in summary, unless there is a strong correlation between accounts, I wouldn't point my finger too quickly ...
