Hilton eBay Auction to Be Stopped?

16. I know the guy that's selling the Paris Hiltons jewerly in Burbank, and over half the stuff is not what it seems. He is putting some of his own stuff on with the lot saying its part of the collection. He is a crossdresser, and dresses up trying to be Paris, but he's 80 years old, and had breast implants 30 years ago. He says he smells the jewerly everyday.

17. Im surprised in a way how many people are really starting to hate on celebs when they make it big. Tom Cruise, Mel and his poor drunk choice of words so what and for a long time Paris. Yes I know it's part of being a star but whats with all the hate.

18. It's funny how someone can have so much hatred with someone with not even knowing that person. That just goes to show the ignorance some people have. Get a life losers! We are rich bitch.

19. It's amazing the hatred some people have towards someone they don't even know. They base their judgements on the media or their own personal perspective. This just goes to show the ignorance of those individuals. Stay in school losers, were rich bitch.

20. What a bunch of numbnuts. This is the epitome of American ignorance. All of these people are pissed because they either wish they were you or have such low self esteem or low self worth that they would probably kill themselves if rubbed the wrong. Paris girl, go on and do your thing.

24. I see that the Paris home movie was taken off Ebay, but put back on with the bidders ID kept secret, but they are still bidding up the tape by fakeing real bids to get the price up. I thought that was against Ebays policys. I hope they get caught, and pay. That auction should of been stopped the first day.

25. NYvicky, why are you so interested in what these people are doing? Some people have this stupid jealous streak in them. How do you know if they're not legit bids? Maybe they're trying to protect the people that are bidding. I sometimes sell high priced items on ebay and I always make them private bidding as to protect the bidders privacy and alot of times certain people request. I started doing it because of the amount of requests I got about making it private and all my bids were legit. So don't be so quick to judge people unless you have a personal reason as to why you feel the need to sabotage other peoples businesses. I would just stick to your own business, whatever that maybe and try to make a buck at that, if you can.

26. Sara, you are so stupid you know damn well the bidding is all SHILL bidding to get the price up. I think all of Paris friends should start emailing Ebay, and report SHILL BIDDING on this item until it's taken off. If they get enough emails they will shut down the site. Report it at least once a day till its off. I sell on Ebay here in NY, and would never do what that stupid ass is doing with that tape. Private bidding my ass!!!

27. Ah, NYvicky, it as though you're the stupid one! Private bidding is done all the time on Ebay even on a lot smaller items! If you're really a seller on Ebay you'd know this happens all the time. Are you one of Paris's friends? Go ahead and emai all you want to Ebay, you think that they care because you have a hunch that someone is "SHILL BIDDING" . Good luck! Anyway take your ignorance else where and happy hunting dumbass!!!!

28. NYvicky, why wouldn't you do as "that dumbass" is doing with those tapes? I don't understand what the big deal is. Why can't a seller choose to make it private? That doesn't prove that it's shill bidding or otherwise, it's people like you who are stupid!!!!!! Before you go around calling people names you should maybe do your research and stop being a hater.

29. I have been reading all the previous comments and all seem to be from people with absolutely no factual knowledge as to the real situation, but seem very opinionated. Let me clear up a few things for those of you that wish to be informed. First off Mr. Schmidt has absolutely no exclusive right to the items; if he did the items would not still be at auction. Second, as a possible prospective buyer of some of these items I have done my homework, the items being offered are all genuine and will come with # certificates of authenticity showing the buyers name and they will be kept on file with the attorney representing the true owner of the items. This means no fake certificates will be able to be passed off with bogus items later by people saying they purchased the Paris item via ebay. Only the original true item with a corresponding serial # certificate will be authentic. Third, the reason the auction was changed to private was due to some of the bidders receiving unsolicited bogus offers to buy “copies of the tape”. I know this because I received 1 of the offers and emailed the seller regarding it. Fourth, as to the alleged fake bids, if you notice the reserve has not been met and the auction is going up in relatively small incremental amounts, the pervious auction was at 125k when it was pulled, the current auction is at 76k., if they were involved in fraud they could simply place a bid just below the reserve and wait for someone to go above them where the item would sell. I placed a couple bids and I know mine are legitimate, who cares anyway as it will not sell until the reserve is met and who knows where that is set? Lastly as to those that feel it is wrong to sell these items... these items were legitimately purchased at auction. The person that bought them had no idea what they were purchasing and by luck ended up with something of tremendous value. They took the risk and therefore should be rewarded. If these items were important to Paris she should have taken steps to insure their security. They no longer belong to Paris Hilton and the owner has the right to do with them as they see fit, besides from what I have been told Paris has had the opportunity to purchase back the items and has not done so. I do not know anyone that would do anything different if they were in the same exact shoes, business is business
