How do I find out who is following me when I purchase eBay items?
How do I find out who is following me on eBay? Is this odd? I am curious why someone would be able to follow the items I buy. I have 1 follower.

Users cannot see who has followed them, as "Saved Seller" list info is private. Users cannot see who has bookmarked a user's page, or who has viewed an item.
Following you on eBay does not enable anyone to see what items you buy. Following just means adding your username to a "Saved Seller" list (even if you are not a seller), which provides a link to your profile and items for sale. If you have no items for sale, only your public profile and public feedback info is available.
Although you can see what items you have purchased when signed in to your own account, others that are not signed in to your account cannot see that information directly. At most, other users can see which sellers you have left feedback for. If your feedback comments are relatively unique, someone with some time and effort might be able to connect a feedback comment you have left to a transaction on the seller's feedback page.
