By my comment of "going for so much" being misleading, I meant that when I read that before clicking over to the listing, I thought it was going to be something that was getting bid up to astronomical levels, two bidders duking it out, something with lots of bid activity, etc., which isn't what is happening. The actual situation though is that someone started an auction with the equivalent of a Buy It Now price, probably only expecting to get 1 bid, but leaving it open to the possibility of someone upping it even more. If it hadn't gotten a bid this time around, I'm sure it would have shown up again with a lower starting price (which is actually what I was hoping for, but alas).
Sorry, should have been clearer.
