I see your point. In theory, replay that auction with the high bidder out of the picture and the top guy left is the under bidder.

Now, I have something else to consider regarding market "price" vs. market "value." Suppose you consign a card to an AH, they charge you 10% commission. High bid is $100, so the bidder pays $120 with the 20% BP. The price to the buyer is $120, but the net value to the seller is $90. So what is the value of the card? According to this auction result, you can get $90 for it.
