Sure, just make that figure the opening bid. But you had better be prepared to sell it for that price if you only get one bid. That is the way I do it as I find that reserve prices turn a lot of buyers off. You sometimes may submit three or four bids just to find they are still under the reserve and the item won't sell for less than the reserve. That annoys me and others.
