Which has the better odds, eBay putting an icon in the listings to show an auction's reserve status or Ralph Nader getting elected?
I noticed that over 250,000 listings have seen fit to include No Reserve or NR in their titles. If eBay was to give an icon to express a listing reserve status would they be discouraging people from paying the reserve fees?
It would be so nice if I could use those 3 spaces that NR takes in my titles for something else, but with very low opening bids I feel like I'm compelled to include that. As a buyer it gets discouraging to click on a listing to see "Thanks for looking but that isn't my REAL minium bid"
