Am I the only one who notices this?

For example:

-Some guy is selling a really nice item but struggles to get any bids on it.

-Another guy on jsp is selling an item of similar quality and he has people posting on his topic with some outrageous bids.

Not too long ago I saw an item posted and someone bid 15k right out of the gate and I couldn't seem to find anything to make that item worth 15k. It always seems to be the 'popular' jsp people that this happens to.

Unfortunately, this is the way of the world. You can have no degree, no experience, and make 100k+ a year because of who you know and not what you know. What you are saying happens every single day in every walk of life in various categories.

Yeah that's always been around, friends making bids for friends to get more for the product. However if people stop giving in to this undermining maybe the prices on things would be more stable

Its against rules, its called bid fixing irl and people have been scammer tagged for it on jsp. Report them, fuck em if they get tagged. People posting “25k fg” perfect runewords no one uses on 3 different platform subs do this shit so they don’t have to sell it for 500 fg after weeks. Its corny af and should be illegal the second real money in jsp was involved.


Edit:/ and no, you’re not crazy and they’re not slick its super obvious, usually someone in their friends list.
