I've seen both scenarios quite often. One auction on Bring a Trailer cannot be the measure of the market nor can a single live auction price. It's like world records in racing, they need to be backed up with several other supporting times before its considered bonafide
My take is one car or one sell is never the measure of a market trend. Just as you concluded.
It is important to step back and try to see the "forest" and not get caught up on a individual sell/buys when evaluating market trends.
