Even for Anraku this is a totally insane price (assuming it's a legit bidder).

Dude won a MIB one for Y100k and decides to open it and sell it w/ a reserve price of Y300k?
Or maybe it was the spare one he had lying around.

How can you tell there was a reserve? Just curious. I was watching that auction and I saw it start at 40,000Y. It exponentially jumped from there...so, as opposed to ebay (which never reveals the reserve), YJA shows the reserve?

What Josh said.

I bought a seemingly mint loose Bandai Frankenruge for much less than that reserve.

That seller is obviously testing the market

I paid a lot less than the high bid for my painted one in japan

And the market kind of proves itself. No one was stupid enough to bid it up to 150-200,000 yen.
Meanwhile some older Dakos were pulling in 80,000 yen or so.
So kinda not surprised at the final bid that didn't hit the reserve.
