Hi, does anyone know if ebay Australia has changed the rules around setting reserve prices? I thought a reserve was only available for cars and boats, but I've seen an item in the fashion jewellery category that says Reserve not met (item 306563307631 - snip below). Thanks!

OP10 months agoThanks everyone, just wanted to know if I'd missed an update somewhere along the way. It may be a one-off or glitch as twyngwyn suggested.

·10 months agopadi, it still states ❝On eBay.com.au, the reserve price feature is only available for auction-style listings of Cars, Motorcycles, and Boats within the Motors categories.❞
Is this jewellery item listed on eBay.com…? EDIT: No, it’s not. Hmmm.
