We use the same system as BST and others who instruct simple auction site to turn off ability to see maximum bids.
I believe Leon has his site set up the same way.

this is not exactly true. we do use Simple Auctions, Bob Freedman's group.
we paid Bob to have True Bid overlaid on his software. True Bid takes the "switch" that Ken refers to out of the equation.
we do not have the ability to see bids, passwords, watch lists, etc.
that was very important to us.
