Looks like they changed the way they work reserves.

    Maybe when they apply the reserves, it will be in there.... that way you will know if you were outbid or didn't meet reserve (Assume if you don't meet reserve, the coin may be in the after show bargain box).
    Give Blood (Red Bags) & Platelets (Yellow Bags)!

    Boy, they could put a lot of pressure on consignors to reserve their coins more reasonably if they allowed bidders to search for only items that have already met their reserve...

    Then again, so could eBay.

    I saw it saying "Reserve Met" on the internet auctions last night. I know the Bowers sale lets you know if you are bidding against a reserve, which is good to know.

    I guess they implemented this in the middle of the current internet auction and then took it away? Some of the coins I was looking at had current bid $51, next bid $3600 (where the same EXACT coin sold 3 months ago for $3600 at heritage). Guessing someone whats to sell what they bought 3 months ago and they do not want to lose the 15% buyer's fee
