Don't care for reserves, but will bid. I like high opening bid, no reserve. This way, I know what I'm willing to spend and the seller is letting me know what they are willing to settle with.
My Arod 1st Grand Slam Bat ended last night. I had an opening bid of $7,500 with no reserve. It ended at $8,250 hammer price, with BP $9,900.
I paid $3,500 for the bat in 2009. Knew I would be happy with at least $7,500+, so it's a win-win for everyone. Of course I wish it went a bit higher, but at the end of the day, I'm good.
