One thing you have to remember, B-J is to auctions what Pinks was to drag racing.....A TV show with a lot of canned drama.

To get the TV time cars have to be put up with no reserve. But, it has been proven that sellers are allowed to bid on their own cars and buy them back for a set fee to avoid taking it up the wazoo on a no reserve sale. The only problem with that is the general public tends to believe it is real.

You have the same problem with E-Bag. Shill auctions ruined for the real world.
