Jeans reserve price tell me atleast £50

[stevebills]

I want to put a reserve on jeans at £25.00 but eBay tells me to do a minimum of £50.00 whats going on?

[jeffweico]

Are they recommending this or are they forcing you to do it? I know that eBay always recommends pricing and such, but I have never heard of them forcing their recommendations on anyone.

What are you talking about?

Describe the item?

Is it NIB? or used?



fix your typo in the OP.... add 'what' is going on

[stevebills]

A new pair of jeans and when i set the reserve at £25.00 I get this stupid message?
I dont want to put £50 as a reserve

[GreenBean]

ebay know the value of the jeans.

I guess they are 'branded'?

If you undercut their value, you are manipulating the sale.

They KNOW how to spell.

Better than you do.

If you undervalue that item, they think you are up to no good & manipulating the system.

Steve, have you listed clothing before?

I'm pretty sure you can't, or at least couldn't put a reserve on anything under £50. So if it doesn't make 50, it doesn't sell. I only tried to do this a long time ago, so maybe it's only certain categories that have a 50 limit. I think it's all, though.

What kind of jeans you selling steve?

[isitworththestress]

Minimum reserve has been fifty quid for ages.

I remember all the shouting when it was introduced, as the reserve was being used to protect against ebay cock ups and what not.
