is suspect there is nothing illegal about it (depends on state) as it is an open "public auction" and the owner would be "public" many folks that would see the owner bidding would tend to stop bidding either because they thought/feel something is not right or want to stick him with it. so i would imagine the auctioneers would tend to discourage it.
estate sales are different as technically the estate is selling not the individual beneficiaries. yea they "own" it but they don't so a different animal all together.
around here there are more than 1 shady amish auctioneering company that has shills and/or phantom bidders. have heard that some have gotten and reputation and have gotten stuck with stuff once folks catch on. some have approached the back-up bidder with some story that the person that won the bid "thought it was something else" and didn't want it and offer it to the back up bidder... "no thanks" if they did that to me i'd make a straight beeline to the owner/executor and tell them what happened... might even threaten the auctioneer to report them. but probably won't happen as i deliberately don't attend their auctions.
