[ARC5] How Did This Happen?

[Dennis Monticelli]

I think eBay is the most "efficient" value setting tool available because
it brings together so many buyers and sellers and publishes the results for
all to see.  Having said that, any time you have a small statistical
population of interested buyers (I think our command sets qualify), there
are going to be some statistical outlying data points beyond the norm such
as two must-have buyers locking horns or the small buying community not
paying close attention all the while assuming someone else will drop in and
take the price up to the norm.  I think the latter happened in this case.
