Why did this card go so high? I've seen Cup 1 of 1's sell lower. Set builders? Only thing I can think of. I put in a bid of $425 and wasn't even in the ballpark... Crazy!

Monumental Patches 2/2

Many times when bidding on a Scott Stevens item, I'll throw out an outrageous bid with the thought process of "It should never go this high, but this bid will get me the item over whatever the other highest bid is." Only takes a second person with the same idea to have a result like that.
 
I think it's also worth pointing out that the Monumental Patches have a bit of a cult following.
 
Maybe the person already had the 1/2 and desperately wanted both of them? Also good point as above that some things just have a crazy following.
 
There is a massive Kopitar collector on Blowout. He has a rolling Kopitar PC thread going on there as well. His collection is beyond inane.

Wouldn't surprise me if he's the guy who won this card.

Yes I've lost many cards to him. He has the best Kopitar collection I've seen. Here is a link to his Flickr if you want to see the collection in its entirety. Worth the look...
