There's an item on Ebay that needs another part to work properly,but i'm only after one of the items. I guess most people will be bidding for both. If i used my "second" ID and bid an outrageous amount for one (without intention of buying it) then that might put people off buying the part i want therefore i get it for a better price.

Acceptable tactics or "down and dirty"?

I'd say i'm 60/40 against doing it. He's a dipstick for listing them separately,but i'd hate it if someone did it to me.
