I wonder if the seller may regret not setting the reserve say at £900 the first-time round, as this tends to bring a better price usually, however time will tell when the current listing ends !

Listing ended on £510 'Reserve Not Met' !

Yup. I expect these were new bidders - those bidding the first time around obviously lost interest and are not inclined to try again. £900 is strong money for a car that's got the steering wheel on the wrong side and some dodgy paintwork.

No takers at £495 - this guy really missed the boat big style first time around. I reckon he should relist at 99p and try to encourage a bit of interest, but I suspect most of the original bidders will have been put off. This is really turning into a 'How Not To' guide!

I must admit, I lost interest when it looked like it would go expensive.

Obviously not learning by experience then, although I suppose starting at £450 is an improvement of sorts. ](*,)

£350 less than the first time listed (Achieved £920 but Reserve not met) plus the E-bay costs of all the other listings to be deducted from the final realised price they ended up with !
