Making bidding history private

Nov 6, 2009 11:01 AM
Is there any way to make your bidding history private, so that other users can't look up your name and see what you've been bidding on?

no

if you need to hide your purchases from someone, get a new ID and don't tell them what it is





The work force is disgusted, downs tools and walks
Innocence is injured experience just talks
Everyone seeks damages and everyone agrees
That these are classic symptoms of a monetary squeeze
On PSU and auctionbytes they talk about the curse
Meg Whitman was useless, John Donohoe is worse

Other people (except you and your sellers) can only see what you have already won. They haven't been able to see what you are currently bidding on or what you've lost for a couple of years now.

So I guess you could lowball everything to increase your odds of not winning, but I assume that would run counter to some of your other objectives.

When all else fails, read the instructions.

I go along with the suggestion you get a new i.d. and don't tell anyone if you really don't want anyone to know what you are bidding on/buying.

Even though you have chosen to keep your feedback private, I can still see what you have won/bought in the past 30 days.
