There is a Q & A message board on eBay (look under "Community" then "Discussion Boards" then "Help Boards") where members offer advice and help to each other. It may be worth putting a toe in the water there.

I wouldn't recommend doing the "dodgy way" which is known as shill bidding and can get you banned from eBay if it is discovered. If the person you are dealing with is a rival who wants your item out of the way so theirs has a free run and then you suggest a shil to them they wouldn't be above reporting you to eBay to get rid of you permanently. Yes there are some very unpleasant people out there who would actually stoop so low. When I first joined I had no idea of half of what goes on!
