The logic of it is this:
I have in mind what my smallest price is but I know I'm fucking greedy and if there are lower bids I can still decide to sell it for that, even though I have a reserve price.
If I start the bidding off at the reserve price then no one can bid lower.
So I lose my chance to accept a lower price.
Plus the number of bids helps people decide to bid also since they notice that the item is of interest to others therefore probably worth a price.
If you have no bids with a price of $3000, people are wondering if you are just selling shit and don't want to be the sucker.
