Reserve prices

How do I know if an item has a reserve?

Check the listing bid panel for Reserve not met, Reserve met, or No reserve.

On a listing page, look at the bid panel next to the current price.

  • If the seller set a reserve, you’ll see Reserve not met until bidding reaches it, then Reserve met.

  • If there’s no reserve, you’ll see No reserve.

Bidders don’t see the reserve dollar amount—only whether it has been met.
