More eBay shenanigans

Was watching an auction for a 2020 bowman chrome gold refractor Jordan Walker auto tonight as I was interested in the card. With 30 mins or so left in the auction the price jumped from $515 to $1500. Winning bid ended up being $521. I feel like I am seeing more and more of this.

Agree. Please, everyone, keep sharing when you see stuff like this.

I thought eBay stopped this from happening over a decade ago. Guess I was wrong or they changed their policy.

Doesn't this prevent people from bidding?

Someone needs to contact eBay and explain to them this hurts their bottom line.
