I gave up listing items with reserves a few years ago, now I just list
with the starting bid at a price that I'm willing to let the item go
for. No one has to play games to guess the reserve. I may get less
bids but I get bids from people who really want the item as they know
that the first bid could end up in them winning the item. If it
doesn't sell I just list again, sometimes at the same price sometimes
less.
