Sold page changes: How to see who's been bidding on your items?
AnsweredHiya - anyone know how to see who's been bidding on your items?
It's always good to know who's out there and bidding, but suddenly the sold page only gives the final bid, with none of the previous bids/bidders. How can I find that info now?

Hello keripete.
For me I click into the auction then select the bid history which shows on the right of the screen under the final winning bid price.

I wish it was as simply as that but unfortunately they don't always show anymore.

Thanks for the responses - it's weird, but I now get bid history on some listings and not on others.
I got a response today from Trademe saying they are rolling out changes category by category, which explains it - but it also suggests that eventually there won't be bid history on any listings?
I hope it doesn't end up like ebay, where bidders are always hidden - making manipulation and bid-rigging easy for unscrupulous sellers.0 -

Yes! that's the concern I have, being able to see if shilling or bid shielding activity is taking place - Cheers.

This is what I have been thinking too, hiding bidding history, there will be a lot of shill bidding going on that will be undetected?,
this is not making things safer at all, quite the opposite,
also you could see bidders of casual sellers who buy then on sell, that should be Intrade?, so hiding all the evidence now?,
so how are we going to help now keeping Trade Me a safe place to trade?,
Very much missing Bidbud, could see some bidding history, who out bid your autobid, now it is all a mystery?, It was the only way I checked feedback if it was on the new format, as it new format is so horrible too spread out, too many pages, icons do not stand out well like neutrals and negatives etc. so people will not be checking feed backs before they buy now either? People will have issues, Then people ask did you check feedback before you brought?, I still have links to old feedback so now just change member number if I need to check,
