I don't understand how it can work, since REA items get exposure to pretty much anyone who would be in the market for items in that price range - but he keeps doing it, so it must be working.....

Sorta confuses me a bit too. I wouldn’t expect to be able to routinely turn around resell a piece at a big markup. But apparently it’s working for some sellers, in spite of my skepticism.
And I think this highlights how auctions don’t always deliver the highest and best price. Whether that’s because some people don’t touch auctions, or because the piece is just that rare and awesome, and buyers will pay whatever you’re asking. And maybe it’s both, plus other factors that drive this dynamic.
