Ebay Question

[mrlayance]

If someone emailed you and asked what the reserve was would you tell them?

 

[Schadenfroh]

whats the point of the reserve then?

 

[DannyBoy]

erm, no.

You shouldnt use eGay anyway

I'd tell them what it is. Reserve is a price you'd be willing to sell at, otherwise you'd have put the reserve higher.

If it's actually worth more than reserve someone will bid higher anyway

someone else asked this.

That is what I was thinking myself

 

[Yossarian]

sure, why not.

just tell them that it's a very fair price.

but if your not selling a ton of items, it's better to just not put a reserve. It keeps more bidders interested(thinking they might get a deal), plus, you can just cancel the auction a couple minutes early if things aren't going your way. I never pay more than .30cents(.55 with gallery), for any listing.
