It will be back in a couple days with some "buyer didnt pay"-story and be more likely to sell above true value to some unknowing fella who thinks the earlier "sale" at USD4k had something to do with the real world?

I have seen it happen sometimes, my guess is the "buyer" is cooperating with the "seller"...
