Start the bidding at 1 cent with no reserve. That will surely move your RV. People sometimes bid only on the ones with no reserve. And people (myself included) search *only* on things that have at least one bid.

If it's not moving at the reserve price, it's because the reserve is set to high, right?

You can always un-list it if you want, but you'll be mising out on the last minute bids that often double the offer. Some people bid *only* at the last minute.

Oh, and send me the link to your listing, if it starts at a really low price.

I bid on it. That ought to help your listing get some traction.

Hey all, take a look at the RV. At the low price it's at, it makes sense to bid. About $100 NOW.

That's from the hogs last visit. You need to fill it with the smell of peanut butter and banana sandwichs...first person to smell that will overbid quick.
