Ebay's decision to obscure user names has facilitated shill bidding. Ebay
says they watch for it, but I do not trust them.
I wish another online
auction site would take hold. Ebay is getting very unpleasant to do business
with.

Second chance offers have been available on eBay for years, but
fraudulent offers are what caused eBay to partially obscure user names
from
anyone but the seller of the item about a year ago. The text Don
received
sounds a bit odd, but does sound a bit like the language used
when I made a
second chance offer to a buyer of a clutch disk. When in
doubt, contact the
seller using the original ID.
