One of the oldest sales ploys is to give a false impression of demand for whatever is being sold. Reportedly (on a blog comment): “I saw an interesting thing at an open house in the neighborhood yesterday. The realtor showed up with an open house sign and 7 other people. They stayed the whole 2 hours during the open house, milled around with brochures in their hands, and then left with the realtor at the end. They were hired to make the open house look busy!”
