Default Reserve on ebay

I'm quite new to this pc game and was curious about the above on ebay. If i wanted to sell my car on there and put a reserve price on it, but it never reached the reserve would i still have to sell it the highest bidder??

cheers people

Not sure mate never sold a car but I think the basic is Ł6 per car aint it ? Then any extras like bigger pics, reserve fee, gallery pics etc...... Expect about Ł10 ??? Which is about 5 times cheaper than Auto Trader

i think its a extra Ł15 on top of the auction cost mate if its up to Ł2999 then i think they take a % . if you look on the selling page there is a heading for sellers rates

If you look at the costs for auctioning a car the reserve price is

Ł100

im sure of it here is the text from fleabay

Optional Feature Fees



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can add optional features to help increase bids and chances of selling success.

Reserve Fees (refunded if item sells): Hide

Reserve Price Fee
Ł0.01 - Ł49.99 N/A
Ł50.00 - Ł4,999.99 2% of the reserve price
Ł5,000.00 and up Ł100.00

On eBay.co.uk, sellers who wish to use a reserve price must set the reserve price to be equal to or greater than Ł50. It is not permissible to set a reserve price level to be less than Ł50.
