looks like some asshat registered 2 new accounts to bid your item up. possibly in an attempt to up the value of his own like item for sale

I agree. I wonder how many of those top bids were actually the same person? Judging by the questions in your auction...you're in the process of getting scammed.

I think the $$ will never show up but I still don't understand the buyer's motive. Does he/she think I'll just pop it in the mail tomorrow? WTF?

Yeah, he's counting on you being greedy and/or stupid.

This is ebay after all.

If the guy emails you with the word "Nigeria" in his email, just forward it to eBay, tell them what happened, and they'll cancel the auction and refund your listing fees. I should know, as it happened to me twice when trying to sell my PS2 and games.

Then GIS for the nastiest gay porn you can find and send it to the guy for good measure--Nigerians LOVE that kind of stuff. :D
