Hi Keith:
Shouldn't you set the starting bid to your reserve price? I mean what's the
point of starting bidding at $0 when you have no intention of taking less
than $20? Is it the vain hope that people will get into a bidding frenzy all
the time knowing that as long as that "reserve not met" sign is there it
doesn't count? Seems unlikely to me. I think a hidden reserve is kind of
illogical.

Subject: Selling on EBAY
Is it standard practice to disclose the reserve to bidders on eBay?
Im selling a car on eBay but I have had three inquiries as to what my
reserve is. I want to be fair to everyone it seems unfair to disclose it
to individual bidders, and counter to the purpose of a reserve.
PS: eBay Item #2436333434 its a Saab Sonett, Im keeping the TR6.
