Well yes, manipulating the auction house with multiple accounts is explicit cheating.

Trying to get more than the last-7 average though is not a crime. Most of the time it is severely under-reported since it doesn't update as collections increase a cards value and I don't really trust it anyway.

There is a calculated trade off between taking longer to sell the card (and risking the value dropping) and a possibly higher price.

For instance I've been working on the postseason collection, very highly priced cards since they all got newly released and supply was low. But now there 8 Carl Furillos on the market, all continuously undercutting each other and 30% lower than last-7. Anyone who was hoarding/speculating/trying to overprice is losing value by the day.
