I don't like the hidden bidder list either. You never know who you are bidding against, it could be a friend.
Below is a link of a seller that shows up as having 100% when looking at jonsered list, but sometimes shows actual feedback if you click on item and has always showed 98.1% when clicking into feedback. Doesn't make sense.

I don't know how much I can say on here but there is a certain:censored: seller on ebay that scammed several people and then was finally kicked off ebay by the ebay police. But was back on in just a short time under a new:censored: name. He claimed he was not the same :censored: fellow as the former:censored: deadbeat seller. Funny, he had the same residential address, was selling chainsaws and other more or less identicle items too as former :censored: deadbeat seller.
There are good sellers and deadbeat scammers on ebay. the worst for me was paying for an old Jred with money order and a certain :censored: did not send the saw. This :censored: seller lives in a town with 'falls' in its / his name.
The nicest was a glassware purchase and some glass ws broken on arrival. the sellers did everything in getting insurance company notified and all the paperwork and everything. Broken glassware was not nice but hte people sure were!
Yep gotta watch the feedback, I don't bid on items if seller has less that 99% and accepts paypal too.
On old slow dialup computer it is hard to be in the auctioning action in the last 60 seconds.
Thanks Archer292 about those 100% feedback scammers, something to watch out for.
