If he had no minimum bid but a high reserve, he would at least find out what someone would be willing to pay, even if the reserve isn't met.

a listing designed for buying, not shopping. it doesn't really matter what the "current market value" is, if it's not at least $15,000 he ain't sellin'. by knowing what the seller's value is i don't have to waste any time or energy trying to figure out a value, make a bid, watch it not make reserve, decide how much i want it, really...

seems like it's appropriately valued and i don't mind having been informed what the scope of the task to put an engine like that into my car would be.

i think a substantial amount of the stuff with sky-high reserve is just using EBay as a cheap appraisal service.
