The other disadvantage to a reserve price is that auctions with reserves tend to get fewer bids. A better strategy may be to go with no reserve and have the starting price be just your absolute bottom price. That way any bid will "win" and your worst case is seliling at your bottom price. Be sure to figure in the ebay costs when coming up with your "starting price"

I haven't sold any big ticket items this way but my borther sold a Harley Fat Boy and a Corvette ZR4 this way - worked out well for him both times.
Good luck
