If the item doesn't reach close to the reserve, congratulations, you just provided the putative buyer with a market-based reason to rescind his offer.
isn't the saying pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered?

I'd prob gamble and let it run it's course since $4000 vs $3800 minus fees isn't a huge difference and there could be upside.

For $4200 I'd end it though.
