This could backfire on the seller, then, if the only reason for the auction
is to get a value for insurance purposes. If people know there's no way
they'll ever match the reserve, they won't bid on it. Since it's not honest
to get a valuation of your collection this way, I think he's wasting
everyone's time. There's no way he'd still stick with whatever the maximum
bid was as his collection's value if it's only say six or seven thousand anyway.
