Since when did one individual = a market? And competing? Being sniped at
the last second by an eBay dolt with a faster connection (or happens to 
be around while the auction is ending) is not competition. This has all
been discussed in great detail before. People getting caught up in the 
"heat" of the moment with their eBay crux does not constitute a 
legitimate 'fair market value'. MANY of the over-the-top ridiculous 
auctions are not even being followed through. Look at all the relistings
these days.

On topic and to further prove my point... I know a realtor here in town
that sold a house to a couple that saw that the previous owners had a 
Pac-Man upright in his basement. The owner did not want to sell it, but
ended up writing it into the offer of the house for $10k more!! <true 
story> Does that mean all Pac-Man uprights are now worth $10k because 
somebody had more dollars than sense? If so, I currently have an 
original Pac-Man upright that has been modded to play 96 different 
Pac-type games I'd love to sell for $10k  ;-)   Any buyers out there? 
After, that's currently the "fair market value", right? Mine should be 
"worth" more since it plays 95 more games than theirs. Hmmm.... maybe I 
should take this to rec.games.video.arcade.marketplace  ;-)
