Most odd,I thought that the bidders ID were kept hidden only when an item
reached a £100?

Another way of shill bidding if this is not the case anymore?

All bidders details have been hidden for quite a while now. I can't
remember exactly when, but it has been at least six months.

This added to the fact the sellers can no longer leave negative
feedback for buyers is making the whole thing a bit farcical.

I welcome both these changes.

As a seller I got fed up of people contacting bidders on my auctions
while the auctions were running, offering them other items instead.
So, for several years now, all my sales have been private auctions.
I'm glad eBay has extended this privacy across the board.

As a buyer I have had some really lousy deals where people have sent
broken or damaged items, or nothing at all, and I have had the
greatest difficulty getting my money back. On top of that, I could
not leave negative feedback to warn others for fear of getting
undeserved retaliatory negative feedback. Now I can leave honest
feedback without fear of retaliation.

You make two good points there which I have no argument with.
