I find this kind of weird. Whether or not an item has a reserve has no
effect at all on whether I bid or how much. eBay doesn't charge me
anything for bidding! I wait until the last moment and bid the

Hi, Keith,
I don't want a steal, but I know what I want to pay for something, and I don't want
to pay more. Is that a bad thing?
A seller has the right to start an auction at whatever price he/she wants. They have
the right to put whatever reserve they want on it. I don't begrudge them that.
Humm.Some good advice from those who responded,thanks folks.

Well, don't see why they can't put up a minimum bid so anyone can see

dealers and hobbyists. Dealers will set a Reserve at wholesale + x%, and

Excellent advice all around, Patrick!
If an item has a reserve on it, I usually don't bid. Why bother? I'm looking
for a bargain, not something with a reserve set at around the KEH price!
That's doubly true if it has a BIN and a reserve, since the reserve is
inevitably set at the same price as
