Because a starting bid and a reserve are the same thing. It's a good deal
at $8,800 to be sure. Who is making a big deal out of it but you Jason?

He does not have a reserve, he has a starting bid price. There is a
difference.
I also have a question: Why do people seem to make a big deal out of
nothing?

I would give him two, but to say its no reserve is not true. His
reserve is
$8,800.

Uh, yeah, but that makes $8,800 his reserve as he will not take less
than
this. Typically, no reserve is ANY bid, even a minimum. Thus, his
reserve
is actually $8,800.

No reserve indicates there is no amount that must be reached inorder
for
the sale to be final. $8800 is his opening bid. A reserve works so
that if your auction doesn't reach a price you would be willing ot sell
for - you dont have to sell. So if he had a reserve set at $10,000 and
it wasnt met - he doesn't have to sell. This way - as long as at least
one bid comes in - he has to sell. (I think there are some ammendments
for not selling to someone with bad feedback or for whatever reasons I
think - not totally up to date on ebay policy)
