<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mac McDonald, post: 7790808, member: 117420&quot;]OK, all you coin auction aficionados and experts...what is the bottom-line difference between a reserve and a starting price...?&nbsp; I say they&#039;re the same when all is said/done...in short order they both protect the seller and his/her interests in items of certain value, et al.&nbsp; Understand they can be/are applied a bit differently...a starting price is known and openly advertised, where a reserve can be and most often is &quot;hidden&quot; until bids reach it.&nbsp; But why mess with a bunch of bids plus the time that takes, but that never reach the (hidden) reserve...when you can set the starting price (same as reserve) and eliminate all those feeler and/or fantasy bids, often by trolls bidding $1, $2, etc, etc...? Does one work better over the other for live or online auctions...advantages, disadvantages, etc...?&nbsp; Thanks for any input/feedback to learn from.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
