[78-L] eBay puzzle

[Malcolm - Venerable Music]

Probably had a reserve price at $550. The one bidder hit the reserve and got 
it for that price.
Popsike is a great tool in some ways, but can also be awfully misleading. 
Just because 2 dumbbells bid a $10 record up to $100, doesn't really mean 
it's worth that.
Popsike does not record many winning bids under $30 so the only one that 
will show up in the search is the one that sold for $100 and not the 20 that 
sold for $10. It can make buying records from a normal vinyl seller quite a 
challenge at times!

Maybe Popsike is wrong ?
I already noticed a few incoherences. And I'm always surprized by the high
prices appearing on Popsike compared to my personal experience on eBay.
What do you think of Popsike ?
