Default Any thoughts on Ebay's new $200 switch of bidder ID ?

Posted By: Jim Dale

What I think the previous poster is saying is that the new information provided (which I think only comes up after an auction closes (not much help there)) provides information like how often the bidder deals with seller and more. It can help you to identify a shill; but I have not checked into it during an auction - only saw it after. Still no names - no user names - just some input on bidding history, feedback, number of bids, and connections to the seller on the same. To be honest unless someone wrote a nifty script to search through those daily for shills...few will be found.
