[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 2598492, member: 27832"]Nope. They eventually caught on that that was a bit of a privacy issue. You can see the specific items that any given user [I]sold[/I], but not [I]who bought[/I] them; conversely, you can't see what that user [I]bought[/I], but you can (at least in their feedback) see who sold it to them. For a while, this information was leaking out via feedback, but I think they've pretty thoroughly patched that hole as well. Do be careful, though, if the item you're re-selling is easily identifiable. If I bought (say) a distinctively clashed high-grade three-cent piece, then quickly sold it, someone familiar with the issue might easily be able to match up the two auctions. That gets a lot easier if you reuse the seller's photos from the auction in which you bought the item. Don't do that. ;)[/QUOTE]
