Bidding policies
To promote a safe, fair and enjoyable trading experience, eBay has established a set of bidding standards and guidelines. The following activities are not permitted on eBay:
- Transaction interference Contacting other buyers by email to warn them about a seller or item is not permitted.
- Misuse of the bid retraction option Manipulating the bidding process to discover the maximum bid of the current high bidder.
- Shill bidding Bidding to artificially increase an item’s price or apparent desirability.
To keep eBay a safe place for buyers, eBay limits how your bid history information is displayed. When the highest bid, reserve or Buy It Now price on an item reaches or exceeds a certain level, other members cannot view your member-specific information—such as your User ID—on the Bid History page. Your User ID is shown to the seller of this item only. Bidders are assigned anonymous names, such as Bidder 1, which are used consistently throughout the bid history for an item.
Regardless of the current high bid, when the reserve or Buy It Now price is initially set at a certain level, your User ID will appear as an
anonymous name throughout the duration of the auction, even if the seller lowers the price.
Notes: Anonymous names may appear more than once in the bid history and may represent different bidders from different auctions.
