why not just use the "or best offer" feature recently offered by Ebay? I think it works better than "Reserve price" and keep the buyers happy.

Thanks for the advice guys. My gut is to not reveal the reserve as that could undermine the bidding, assuming there is bidding. I suppose if there are no bidders, and no watchers, then revealing the reserve probably wouldn't hurt but since this particular item has 7 watchers with 2 days left and 4 bids from two bidders, revealing it could hurt bidding. Then again, if there person who asked is a serious buyer telling him could help get the bidding up closer to my reserve. See how this can be a little confusing?

I think you guys are right that in the end, it's either going to sell or it's not.

there're always buyers. you want to sell for the highest price. either way, the bidder will stop bidding, so don't influence him. everytime he bids, he's signing a contract, so try to get the most out of him
