When you subscribe, your items are rotated into the featured items section based on popularity and buyer interest.

While reserve pricing is discouraged, you can set a minimum bid for your item.  Offermax is designed to attract the highest amount someone is willing to pay for your item.  What may be junk to you could be treasure to someone else.
