Want to know who the high bidder was?

[Brian]

Found this today while browsing.

I have no idea if this is of any use to anyone at all, but just in case.

You have seen that eBay now uses those anonymous bidder names such as s***s etc.

Sometimes an item has ended, and you would like to know who won it, even though it won't show the name. Well..here is a way. Only works if the auction was successfully ended with a sale, if it was less than 31 days ago, and not on BIN items.

It is a German site. Go to http://www.wortfilter.de/Tools/highbidd ... bidder.php

Paste in the auction number and hit the box.

When the next page comes up, click on the bidder name (such as s***s)

In the window that opens next, you can change the .de to .com if you want English and you will load the winner's page.

 

Strange the things that you find online :lol:

Just in case anyone wanted to check an auction. You can only find the winner's id..not any of the other bidders.
