Well, here we go. Notice that eBay has instituted a new bidder ID policy, and it seems to apply intermittently on the militaria auctions I pulled up. May be based upon dollar value. You can no longer view competing bidders ID's, therefore preventing any communication with them regarding bogus items that they may be bidding on. EBay states that it is to prevent buyers from being offered fake items, but the real objective is to prevent buyer interference which is forbidden by eBay policy, or allowing other sellers to contact bidders with the offer of similar items. We'll see how this works out.
