couple quick things...

One, check that bid history. Shill bidding?

Two: Will the 'winner' even pay? These types of things often have a way of slipping past the eye of the media when they fall through.

Lastly, fwiw,  I never even heard of the band or the man. Had to  look it up on YT. When I did, I saw this right near the top.   Seems to take on an entirely different meaning than originally intended, eh?
