"As the internet evolves, eBay continues to strike a balance between preserving
transparency and
protecting our Community of members. eBay has decided to change how bid history
information is
displayed so bad guys cannot target bidders with fake offers using this information. In
certain
cases, some bidders will no longer be able to view Bidder User IDs on the Bid History
page. Your
User ID will be shown only to you and the seller of the item you're bidding on. Other
members will
see an anonymous name, such as Bidder 1, applied consistently to the Bid History
page."

So now, you can't see who you're bidding against.
Frickin' wonderful.
