Bidding on ebay seems a bit slow at the moment, 110 watchers and only
4 bids from 2 bidders. Am I being too optimistic ?.

I never had that many watchers, but it all happened towards the end of
the auction when I sold my Sprint ST. I never had a reserve though.

900 which is probably not unreasonable for a very nice example of
a rare and desireable model.
If there is any justice in this world it should make around 1100.
OTOH Bantams are mainly collectors items for oldphrarts on a
pension so prices tend to be fairly low.

People dont bid until the last half an hour. I didnt think my camera
would sell (£250 reserve) but it went from £100 to £350 in the last 2
minutes.

You need to promptly answer the questions you get asked ,you get more
bids that way.
Especially if its an enquiry relating to 2wd.
