How to find out buyers User ID after purchase?

[Charlieboy]

Hi all
Wondered if any of you could tell me how to find out who had bought an item as the highest bidder in the private auctions on ebay?

As you know they appear v*********f (example)

The reason why I would like to know is to find out potential clients of an expensive item sold on ebay, without posting the item on there myself (for me to sell outside of ebay, creating a client list)

any ideas??

All the best

From your own sales?

I thought they removed that ability so you can't really see who bought what anymore.

They removed the search buyer option too.

Can't be done....gonna have to play nice like the rest of us.

If, by buyer, you mean bidder......you can still see what people bid on......you first have to go to find a member, then bidder search option comes up....if that's what you meant?

I used to go in other peep's sold items and poach the next-highest-bidder adn sell a ton without the EB fees.

GAME OVER.
