100% anonymity while doing business on-line or off-line is never good. I think if money transactions are being made the customer deserves to at least know the seller has been verified.

This may not stop the seller from being malicious, crap may still happen if people used real names, or are verified, but a lot less of it would. Real names isn’t a cure-all, but it’s a big step, at least, for the customers of BoonEx to feel secure, and sellers who care about building and maintaining a reputation see more here.

As Andrew stated it's not mandatory, but members doing business on BoonEx should consider getting verified.
