Real Auction Sites - with No Fake/Shill Bids?

Account Closed

Are there any legitimate auction sites available on the web, large or small, that do not use fake or shill bids? 

Ran into this during due diligence on Auction.com: 

Props to Auction.com for making a transparent disclosure and not burying it in the PDF downloads, but seriously??? Submitting fake bids to bump price is legal? Plus charging a $2500 minimum transaction fee?

Didn't see this on Hubzu's site, although I didn't pour through the documents as I did Auction.com's site, so would appreciate some feedback here.
