Norm, I asked that very question of AuctionArms and their explaination addressed a problem they'd been having with sellers cheating them of their commissions.

Sellers were contacting high bidders when bids failed to reach the reserve price and working off-line deals. They didn't pay AuctionArms for the sale as it wasn't done through their auction.

Now, until a bid reaches the reserve price, the bidder's information remains concealed. Names begin appearing when reserve price is met or exceeded.
