Ebay's new bidder policy is fine for everyday items like new stereo equipment or new cars. The new semi-private auction system does not work for antique/collector items with no real determined market value. For example, ebay user "icantbelievewhatijustsaw' is not going to make a 'top all' bid on a 1999 Ford Taurus on ebay. Ebay must be getting hammered on new items where sellers are contacting underbidders with wholesale prices on 1999 Taures'.
