That's why the emphasis is on I. Those are my individual beliefs. And I said I know not everyone does it, there are plenty of good sellers out there--but there are the bad ones, too.
By inflating I mean the people who obviously haven't done research and set the reserve price for a plain gold badge that's under 10 years old over $50. You can buy a new one for cheaper than that. Why bother bidding on it? Those are the people jumping on the badge bandwagon. They haven't done any research on it, aren't collectors, they just want a way to make a quick buck. And someone will bid on it because there will always be that person who's just discovered eBay and sees their badge for sale and thinks "I need to get that before someone else does" without realizing what's really going on. (FWIW I don't appreciate irresponsible bidders either)
God forbid people look beyond money for once.
