I don't think the Guerciotti auction is that unusual, and not a bad price for that bike.
The Bidder1. . .bidder2 thing is great for cutting down on fraudulent 2nd chance offers,
but it does hide shill bidders (on items over $100 ?).

Bidder 4(who raised the bids about $200) in the Guerciotti auction had 100% activity with the seller. The bike was a damaged SL frame. The gruppo was the only thing worth serious cash, IMO. I bought a nicer Guerciotti for half that, albeit not pantographed.
