EBAY and 'US GENTS'

Gents
Don't know if this is 'pratical or even of interest/use' but i was wondering about when 'we' occasionally venture onto 'ebay' to buy stuff (wargaming gear mainly) and a 'potential problem'?
After the recent WW2 game i've ventered onto 'the WEB' to purchase some 'corgi hardwear'. I came across Peter trying to buy up Shermans. I knew it was Peter as his LoGW 'name' appeared on the 'bidding'. I naturally 'backed off' as i didn't want to cause a 'bidding war' between us. It would have been not apparent to Peter, whom i was, as i do not go under any of my 'usual titles'.
My thought is, is there any mileage in us 'circulating' (privately) our 'ebay names' to each other to avoid this potential issue?
Thoughts?
