I actually am having some what the same dificulties... I won an item today, but i have filled in seller id and item number and i get a message that ebay is unable to give me this information as i do not have a transaction with that ebay id... (but i do)...
Since then, the newbie seller has responded to my message with the info i need, but I was curious as to why i couldnt get the info via *find contact information* link on the site map... has this changed or something? its been a while since i last purchased on ebay.
:
I don't think it is anything sinister - there seems to be a small glitch with this function, sometimes it works and sometimes not. I have had that happen and I asked ebay and they emailed me the information.
