When you combine the alias with the rating - e.g. k***u ( 862 ) - the
accuracy starts to resemble crosshairs in a sniper scope.

Yup. It helps to know that the masked bidder ID, liks a***f, stays
constant sale to sale. While there are only a few over 650 such
combinations, it's still pretty accurate on items with limited appeal.

Hi all;
It was nice back when ebay let us know who we were bidding against, if you
were up a against some heavy hitter then why waste your time, etc. Now it
takes a little more work to ferret out who you're up against. What I have
done is to save the feedback page for a seller of an item I may have been
out bid on. Usually within a short time the bidders feedback response
shows up on the sellers feedback page, compare the feedback score back
against the item page to check if you have the right person. Then from
that you can do a bidder search in "advanced search" and look at items bid
on in the last 30 days to cross check. I then save the bidder's bid page
in a folder, I have done that to most of us bidding time-nuts. Creepy
huh!?!
