A handy little link I came across today, I've used it a couple of times this mornign and found it useful.
paste all this line into your address bar in internet explorer and replace the word USERID (the one in uppercase) with the ebay id of someone you want to know about, and this link will show you everything they have WON OR BID ON recently.....shows if they are carpet-bombing certain items... e.g. scammers tend to bid stupidly high on lots of items....e.g. posh mobile phones, etc.

Sorry I removed the link as it asks for a sign in and is against the 'never sign into ebay following a link posted by someone else' kind of advice that we always post on here.
For anyone interested though, go into buy, then into advanced search put in user id and you can see what your bidders and sellers have been doing in the past 30 days.

Isn't this achieved by doing an "advanced search" and searching by bidder?0 -
Same here! I often do an advanced search and look what others have been buying/selling - for people that I have bought or sold from!Weight Loss - 102lb0
