Ebay 2nd chance

[Hank70SS]

Twice in less than a week I got a 2nd chance offer on Ebay. Both items had zero bids until I placed a bid, they had been posted for days. I waited until the last day and placed a bid. Didn't get out bid right away but before it ended. Both times I got a 2nd chance offer a couple of days later. Do these guys have shill bidders and when you don't bite they give you a 2nd chance?

Just seems funny that it happened twice on items that had no bidding going on.
