OK - I should have looked this up before asking but found the info
on why there are Private Bidders. Did not know that it is the
seller that sets it up that way.
From EBay FAQ:
>>When a seller creates a private listing, a buyer's User ID does not appear in the listing
or in the listing's bid history. Only the seller is authorized to view the buyer User IDs
associated with that listing.<<
Pretty obvious that seller does not want anyone wising up his
potential marks so he keeps the bidding info hidden. All his
auctions are now private.
