I found out that they would rather make something in and out (buyer ,seller) than nothing... on your dime!!
well heritage lets you do a reserve but you pay them a percentage or something if card doesn't sell.....some auction houses make you pay 20% on the highest bid if card doesn't sell...that way you wont have an unrealistic reserve and waste their time..
