I've noticed needle cups getting higher prices lately, but why so much more for this one?

Gold plated needle cups are not too common and usually command higher prices than the nickle plated ones.
In this case, looking at the bid history, there were 2 guys determined to win it.

I am mamazed at how much of a price something like this commands, but I think it is probably a case of bidding madness that got out of hand (think a number of us have been there!). Um, think I have a spare one of those somewhere, but whats the betting if I listed it on ebay it would only go for 99c!
