Regrettable, auction won but it did not meet to reserve price. Bidder to be ashamed, was too cheap!”

And that’s about all I see recently. I don’t get that idea of a reserve price, shouldn’t that be the starting bid? Otherwise I have no idea how much somebody wants. I’d be willing to bid more, but because I have no clue, I have to bid for several items, hoping that I’ll get at least one of them. That means less available money per auction (usually resulting in not meeting the reserve price)

If I knew that I don’t have enough money to bid for Item A but enough for B and C, I could bid more for the other two. But this way nobody gets anything and I have to stick to the shops, at least they seem to be happy to take some millions of my Log in to see images!
