They don't know unless someone complains about sham bidding. A friend had 
that happen to him and they suspended his account for a month. Maybe they 
log IP addresses and can check to see if the bid is coming from the same IP 
under different account names.

On the downside, if you "sell" an item, eBay takes their cut of the sale 
price when you mark the item as paid.

If I'm bidding on something that I really want, the max I'll pay goes in 
within the final 5 - 10 seconds of the auction. I never bid earlier then 
that which is probably true of most winning bids.
