Its not worth it. Market fluctuations happen all the time and you have to deal with them. Posting on multi-server forums never get you anywhere. I'll use dawnstones on my server for an example. They were worth about 30g on average until JC after JC after JC started putting 6+ on the market each, driving the market price down to about 15g each, none of which sold. What did I do with my supply? I hung onto them for about 2 weeks, the supply dried up some and the price started going back up. Once it reached a level I was OK with, I put 1-2 on the AH at a time and made my money.
Reporting these people to a GM will get you nowhere. You have absolutely no proof that the person used a bot, and the GM will tell you as much. You will be doing nothing but wasting his time that he could be using on helping people with actual (not QQ) problems.
If you can't handle simple market situations then maybe you shouldn't try to sell stuff on the AH. Give your items to a friend and have him manage the AH for you.
Grow up, and stop QQing.
One person putting up 200 eels could be hoarding. One person putting up 200 eels per day is much more suspicious. I can usually get a stack and a half in an hour. I suppose it could be done by one person who did nothing but fish, but my thought is that the quantity on a daily basis points strongly towards botting. Let Blizz do its job and investigate.
Being paranoid does not mean that they aren't out to get you.
