I have been wanting to put my 87 200x on ebay, but every time I search for 200x on there the bids look fake. Today I searched for 200x and all vehicles that had bids look fishy. Almost every one had a bidder with user name something like 0**0 or B**E. Every one of them! Anyone know what this is about it?

eBay makes all of them look like that (0**0 or B**E) so that you don't know who is bidding and you can't conact them. eBay started doing that on larger auctions a few months back.

Oh that makes sense. Thanks for letting me know...

By hiding every bidders ID ebay has effectively opened up a shill bidders paradise. Just another reason to stay away from feebay.
