Did you set reserves, or minimum bids, or just go the penny route and let the bidding commence?

It depended on the item. Autographed merchandise usually did better if I started low and let bidding set the price, as did Disneyana. Standard used books were sold at fixed prices. Reserves are a huge turn-off to bidders, I've only used them when selling certain items worth more than $500, and I always stated the reserve in the auction.
