I think you need to find another before this one gets a bid that high. With a back like that, they would've ran off at least one sheet, so there would be others out there. Just one sheet seems unrealistic to assume though, because there really isn't an error here. They had no troubles letting piedmonts go from dark blue to light blue and every blue in between, so why would this set off alarms.

So until you find others, that price is a pretty big leap because the worst case scenario if they're wrong is you have an SGC30 Walsh with an Old Mill back. I might pay double the going rate of a Walsh to take the risk, but I'm not going 150x the price!
