nope- when you list an item it's up to you to choose a starting bid, them's the ebay rules.

Just not how it works...
The only reason you'd start at a buck is if the item...
1) is really cheap to begin with
2) you're counting on the auction process to deliver the true value

Wouldn't a $250 starting bid and a minimum reserve be the same thing ?  |

Real auctions don't always start at a dollar.

I was just using $1 as an example.
I would think no reserve and 0 bids, someone could bid as low as they want ! |

They do it that way because reserve auctions cost a lot more for the lister.
