Bambi writes that StubHub is on the block. Ebay Inc (Nasdaq EBAY) may be a bidder because it needs the growth. The price: $300 million. They expect $100 million in revenues. StubHub is an interesting concept : List your tickets on StubHub, get paid, StubHub does the rest. Queries for StubHub seems to be rising very fast. I think that the company charges too much - 15% commission from the seller, 10% from the buyer. Ouch!

Some mysterious giant bids have popped up before that was linked to drug related things.

Since this is the person's first item there might be some relation. It's not uncommon and has happened before.
That PSP may ship with some very pure packing material if you catch my drift.

That's a really interesting theory, lozhero. It would be an interesting way of getting... material out.

Wonder if the buyer reported it to eBay, inc. It would seem suspicious to me if he/she didn't.

Off topic: Wow, comment spam. Good job "Mr. Wave Theory"

I think his G/F got ahold of his account and was ruining him. He also just bid $3,000+ on Pentium III laptop:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=140082&item=250034205043

Ofcourse in both cases, someone else had to bid up the score for it get that high. I bet in both cases it was the original seller with a second account.

something tells me this is the kind of bidding where someone sells something outside of ebay (or decides they dont want to sell it anymore) and bids it up to a high number, just so that they dont have to explain it to someone else. Meanwhile, for the drug idea, it is so much easier to not even use ebay, when you can use a myriad of different money sending services....doubtful that they would waste the extra time to set it up (unless they were trying to find new buyers, in which case the description usually gives hints to the drugs that are included--i have examples but would rather not list them, of drugs being sold now on ebay.
