Pete, go back and look again, the high bid also says "Reserve not met" this means that the seller has set a minimum price, might be $800, before any of the bids will be accepted. This is a common practice on auctions such as ebay and others. Some of the sellers will put the item up at a low price then there will be a first bid of a greater sum, but if you look at the bidding history, no-one placed a bid. The seller wanted it look like someone is interested to get you to bid more.
