It's different because there's no secret price that must be discovered by
bidding. The lowest I'm willing to accept for the camera is the starting
price, and I make no bones about it. Right up front, for everyone to see
and
decide for themselves. Reserves aren't known, and you dont' know how much
to
bid, or how close you are to the reserve until you reach the threshold.
There is a difference.
