Reserve Price

Sorry, having problems with Cashconverters.
How does it work if you are the first to bid on an item with a reserve price if the maximum you bid is above the reserve but the bid it displays (starting bid) is below?
The auction site cant see you were willing to pay the reserve price so does that mean you wont win unless someone bids against you?

A bid as soon as it hits reserve should show as potentially winning bid, so it *shouldn't* show at less than reserve.
I'd double check the auction page, does it definitely say reserve met? If reserve not met is still showing then the bid hasn't reached the reserve yet.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.
