Turns out the one on PCARMARKET is the same sub-7k-mile car at SW Vintage that didn't meet reserve on BAT the other day.... which explains why SW Vintage doesn't show a price on their website.

Lucky guess. [emoji3] But at any rate, the high bid shows what the market thought the car was worth, regardless of what the seller thought. They may be able to work out a deal offline.
