This J.P. Sauer sold for as much as it did on Ebay because of the ego involved in winning an auction. If you look at the bid history, the last two bids were out of control. You just can't let anyone else win. Who cares if you paid twice as much as it's worth. The point is that you won. It's also from new collectors who don't really do their homework. If they wanted, they could have bought one from an online retailer and spent less. Until now, I'm sure everyone will be inspired to raise their prices. It almost reminds me of the oil market.
