Posted By: <b>Tom Boblitt</b><p>but kind of a bonehead move by ebay to even allow them to be private........I guess I could see that they will NOW be able to only BID but even that shouldn't be allowed. Should all be in the open.........

Posted By: <b>Josh K.</b><p>Agree its a good thing - I also wish that ebay would prohibit sellers from keeping bidders' ids private.

Posted By: <b>Dave</b><p>i'm sure everybody already knows, but for anybody who doesn't, if you go to this site, you can view anybody's feedback score, even if they are private, also if they aren't private, you can get a list of all negs and nuetrals they have ever gotten on ebay<br /><br /><a href="http://www.toolhaus.org/cgi-bin/negs?User" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.toolhaus.org/cgi-bin/negs?User</a>=

Posted By: <b>Matt E.</b><p>Now if they just would eliminate Private Bidders. I feel that is more of a sham, scam whatever you want to call it.<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Gilbert Maines</b><p>Private bidders have their Positive, Neutral, and Negative totals unhidden. Exactly what else do you seek to know about a bidder? And why.

Posted By: <b>Gilbert Maines</b><p>I guess that I was a little quick on that draw, T206Collector. I thought there was objection to buyers who opt to keep their transaction feedback private. Im gonns haveta cut back on the cafeene, Ive been jumping the gun quite a bit lately.

Posted By: <b>Judd Hamlin</b><p>but I've always treated those auctions as a giant "Stay Away" sign, kinda like an eBay Love Canal, if you will, so they are useful to a point.

Posted By: <b>Jeff Drum</b><p>Be interesting to see if this is a retroactive policy whereby you have to expose your feedback record or whether it only applies to listings moving forward. Hopefullly it will be a transparent effort that exposes the history of the entire Seller ID.
