Default Ebay ?

What is up with all the bidders having **** as their names? Are all the names taken or are these just people that raise the prices?

Ebay changed it so you cant see whos bidding, unless your the seller. The main reason for this is so you cant contact someone and offer to sell them something outside of ebay. Its great to get rid of scammers, but if you have the exact item and want to sell it quickly and directly, you can no longer contact someone who is interested in what your selling. Basicly Ebay wants to make all the money, kinda like Bill Gates.

as said above but alot of times its multiple accounts used to run up the price. just wait and bid til the last second. ebay should figure something out like that because its easy to have multiple accounts and if you sell to yourself then you still will have no loss and just relist. i know its gay. ive just had a big issue with sellers not contacting you and not giving you any info and no communication. what kind of ******* wants to sell something and doesnt respond to you. i just post negative feedback.
