eBay question

Is it poor eBay ettiquette to ask a seller what he/she is looking for on an item (they are selling it as auction)? There's about a day left on the auction.

a reserve price is a price set my the seller ahead of time

if the item doesn't reach that number- then they don't have to sell it

you would know- the listing would say reserve not met

do you want to bid on the item? or offer the seller to buy it now for a higher price?

I would like to do a offer higher price... but would that be dumb? I just don't want to loose out on the item to anothe buyer....
