If I sell a used car with a street value of $10k to some poor fool for $20k, that doesn't magically make it worth $20k. What part of this confuses you?
Had to be more than one potentail buyer to get the bid that high, eh? Guess that's not relevant in this case?

Like I said, buying and selling isn't always completely about the money for one or both parties.
