Selling Records On The Source
I wonder if the same dilemma would exist if you had wanted to list an item for more instead of less. I think you should go ahead and list an item at a fair price and that if another seller has it too high that's their problem. I don't see why the etiquette of the board should favor gouging people.

E-Bay Stalker ?
If you want to see the full ID of the bidder, go to Advanced Search->By Bidder and put in your user ID, check "Include completed listings" and uncheck "as high bidder only" and click on "Search". It will show the full ID of the bidder. I'm pretty sure I know who it is in this case and they aren't stalking you (not that that would be possible).

Record Skimming
people keep talking about the "boiling method" which is apparently specific to UK discs. There definitely are a bunch of US sellers that polish records and I don't think they're using steam. I don't think they're using T-Cut either (which isn't available in the US as far as I know, although maybe there is a similar product). I don't know how they do it but I have gotten lots of obviously polished records in the mail, I can think of 4 california sellers alone that do it (not going to name names here). You can tell the record has been polished as there are dull scratches that look like they used to be deeper. I also have gotten more and less polished discs, sometimes trashed records have clearly been highly polished where there is little left in the grooves versus records that clearly just have a little bit taken off. Also, some of the records I've gotten that have been more heavily polished have wear on the label that looks like it might be from the process.

Audio On 12 Inch
I think John Anderson or soul bowl is actually thanked on some audio 45s, if he brought in the 12" I'm sure it's legit
-
Ebay Snipers
this doesn't contradict what I was saying, people don't bid their true max / "true valuation" (which is slightly more than you want). However, you STILL should snipe because it's still better to pay less than your true max even if you're willing to pay more. Why throw away that money?
