re: Are phantom bids legal (real estate)?

It's called shill bidding, and typically very hard to prove but it is illegal. I work in the world of car auctions, so I see it every day.

Auto finance companies shill bid in their own auctions? I understand this could happen with a privately owned/managed seller of cars, but seems a little harder to believe with a publicly traded seller (E.g. Toyota/Honda GMAC finance companies) with a very large, relatively homogeneous product (2-3 year old lease returns).
I'm always interested in the market dynamics of auctions in general. Any insight as to the specific dynamics of auto auctions would be interesting too.
