Looks like the bidder has won 1189 other auctions. Sounds pretty reputable, right? The seller has sold 270 items. Now the math part. The buyer has bought 5 percent of his winnings from the same seller. That's about 60 items.

Then just as I'm about to post the above, he gets another bidder that is new to him.

IMO . . .

It matters not how many transactions the first bidder has on the 'bay. Could still be a "buddy bid".

Who knows???

That's what I'm getting at. He's bought about 60 items from the same seller. Who does that on eBay? Particularly when the sellers only sold 270 items.
