Yep... if you look at the bid pattern the bidder t***y jumped the bid up $10K with one bid, when the first couple of real bidders was inching it up $100 at a time from $15k.
Looks to me like the guy was advertising it on ebay ... he didn't want it to sell on ebay, he wanted to show it on ebay and make a deal elsewhere and avoid the fees, so he puts a silly reserve price on it, drives up the price with fake bids, gets attention, finds a fish in the bidder list, and approaches him outside of ebay.
