Explain this ebay thing to me

[Tripredacus]

I recently started getting back into trying to buy TFs on ebay. I know about some recent problems with pricing, being astronomical, etc for example the Kingdam F-15 debacle that Maz wrote about. But this is something else...

I lost on an auction of misc TF parts. My losing auctions is nothing new, I probably win less than 5% of what I bid on (because I'm notoriously cheap) but this is different.

Nothing in this auction strikes me as being particularly rare, so what's up with that price?

No clue...checking the bidding history, one guy increased his bid a number of times....I guess he really wanted those parts.
