Ebays motive to keep bidders unanimous is to prevent scammers from contacting losing bidders after an auction closes to offer them a second chance to buy the piece. They claim that the winning bidder renigged on the deal and now its yours to buy. Usually higher dollars amounts. I can remember a few times I received emails from scammers claiming to be Mike Farmer trying to get me to paypal them money to purchase a meteorite. So eventually none of the bidders will be available to see. However you can still access the bidders stats by placing the cursor over their designation. I think it sucks cause you always like to know who you are up against in an auction.
