I too refuse to bid in bidder protection auctions. I also am very careful with "Live Auctions." Often the unseen costs for "Live Auctions" can be prohibitive.

Any experiences or comments on bidder identification protection on ebay?! I am always worried that the bidding is sham bidding in these auctions, artificially raising the price? I actually look for bidders whom I have bid against in the past. This lends towards legitimacy, but also confirms what I am bidding on, others that collect the same thing are also interested. Has anyone bid, or won anything with these bidder identification protected auctions? The seller of the Zonophone-A is doing that with that particular auction.
