I think this may be what's going on:

"eBay has changed how bid history information is displayed for higher-priced items. To help keep the eBay community safe, enhance bidder privacy, and protect our members from fraudulent emails, only you and the seller of the item can view your User ID in bid history. Other member will see anonymous names."

Ok you guys must be right, all of the listings have this. Shoot, I thought for a minute I had come across something more sinister like the Bolivian mafia trying to invade Ebay.
( no offence to Bolivian Triumph owners intended ).

I thought it hid the bidders while actual bidding is in progress but when the item is sold the actual final bidder ID who WINS is displayed? who knows ever changing...

nope just checked your right stays hidden..guess I must just be thinking when I was selling...
