He may pay

Erm... that is an eBay thing. If the seller choses, he can hide the bidder names from other bidders and it comes up with Bidder 1, Bidder 2 etc instead.

I dread selling phones on Ebay, same thing happened to me. However when I sold my iphone the other week I had no problems, and in fact it paid for a brand new 16gb one.
