Last night I re-listed my auctions and lowered the prices. Now all my new auctions are showing a reserve price of the original amount! I DID NOT set them up that way and I can't figure out how to get it off! If someone else has had this problem, could you let me know how to fix it?

A few months back, Yahoo software started putting your original opening price in the reserve box for relists, so when you relist, you need to take it out of the box (or replace it, if you want a reserve of a different amount).
The only way you can remove the reserve from your open auctions now is to close them and resubmit WITHOUT the reserve.

When u relist on yahoo the software puts your opening price in the reserve box price BUT it is not the same as using a reserve and U do not need to remove the price from that box. If you just leave it there and continue on relisting and then check the newly resubmitted auction you will see it does not show up as having a reserve.
That would only happen if the price in the reserve box was higher than the opening bid price.
This is just a little trick learned from experience selling on yahoo that I am happy to pass along.
try it and you will see.

Thanks to all!! I have been selling on eBay for about a year, but just started on Yahoo. I appreciate the help from those who have experience here!
Hopefully I will never have to re-list again!
