As I understand it, someone is offering to sell his car to your bidders, and you’re upset.

I don’t quite see why.

You have a car for sale, and are attempting to sell it in an open market setting.
He has a car for sale, and is marketing it to demonstrably interested people. Yes, you brought those people to light, but not all of them are going to be able to buy your ONE car. So, why can’t he sell his, for a lesser price, to one of your bidders?

I assume you fear that his apparent undercutting of your price will harm your sale. Hard truth is that the buyer sets the price, not the seller. If your price is too high and his is more reasonable, why shouldn’t they buy at the lower price? Assuming all else is relatively equal.

I mean, if Ford sells its little cars for $15K minimum and then Chevy offers their comparable little cars for $14K, should the attorney generals jump all over GM for their pricing? If Chevy also got the registration information from the DMV’s as to what drivers of little Fords are in the market for a new little car (based on model year possibly), is that so despicable?

You remind me of someone else on this forum that wanted HIS price, and no discussion about it. So much so that he got the rules changed for himself, until he sold it, at which time the rules reverted back to ‘normal’. So someone is ‘discussing’ your price and its ‘reasonableness’ in today’s market. So what. It’s a free market, with both buyers and sellers, and multiples of each.

I really don’t see the basis for your indignation.
