[QUOTE="ducky, post: 1659613, member: 94420"] Honestly the best I've ever sold a rifle for on GB was a no reserve, penny auction. I've never sold a rifle I've set a reserve on, and I've never bought a rifle that had a reserve on it. I don't think most bidders like reserve auctions. I'd just start it at the minimum price you want for the rifle and let it ride. There were three rifles like yours that sold in the last 30 days $506, $525, and $595. The higher priced rifles had only 1 bid each and the $506 had six bids. So if you want a bidding war you got to get people to your auction and that will cost you money in GB fees. You don't want to run a long auction probably no more than 7 days as people will lose interest and spend their money elsewhere. You want it to end at a time it's convenient for people to be at their computers watching the auction. Saturday mornings or Sunday afternoon seems the best time for ending auctions. Hope that helps.
