I've heard this implied before. No offence, no flame, but exactly how
and why is it illegal. If I was standing in a live auction and realized
that I was bidding against you or some other friend, I would definitly weigh
our friendship against how badly I wanted the item. Also, I once suggested
to a list member that we combine our bids and split a lot, was told that
this also is illegal.
