A seller could do what you describe, but it serves no point. The reserve takes care of minimum value to sell. Relisting the item takes time and isn't a selling advantage. Doubly so complaining about deadbeat bidders (I've had some). As for contacting a second highest bidder because the high bidder fails to pay, that's a built in e-bay feature for sellers. Non-paying high bidders are becoming quite a problem. So much so that e-bay has built in a single button feature to allow you to contact the 2nd highest bidder. It's real and legitimate.

There are undoubtably shills and such on e-bay, just as there are in regular auctions. If you let them bid you up beyond what you're willing to pay, shame on you. That's your fault, not theirs.
