Reserve amounts can be set if you're not willing to sell something for under a certain amount, meaning that if your 'Reserve' is not met by those bidding then you will not be legally bound to sell. E-Bay can also be great for making a bit of money through buying and selling. If you see something at your local store for an absolute bargain, then why not buy it and then re-sell it on E-Bay.
