1. NO, BUT I UNDERSTAND THIS HAPPENS QUITE OFTEN (MORE THAN ANYONE WILL ADMIT). YOU WILL NEED TO INVESTIGATE THIS AND FOLLOW THROUGH DIRECTLY WITH EBAY. TYPING IN CAPS IS YELLING.
2. sorry, never happened to me, and i've been on ebay for over 8 years now. shill bidding is bidding on your own auction to make the price higher. or having friends bid to make the price higher. i'm not sure how ebay tracks this, maybe there's a pattern or a certain user id bids to get the price up, but never wins any auctions. take up your concerns with ebay, maybe they'll be able to explain it better.
