Default Why don't more people use reserves on eBay?
Posted By: Jeff Mohler

I am no Ebay listing expert, but when I list a card, I like to put a BIN at slightly above market on the card. If I don't put a reserve on the card, then the BIN disappears when someone bids my minimum bid (which is usually $.99). My reserve is usually pretty low, but it gives the BIN at least a couple of days exposure.

I don't like high minimum bids, because I think that also discourages bidding, so maybe I should start a thread about high miminum bids.
