The seller assumed, and rightly so that the car had sold for $700,000. If I remember correctly, the next highest bid was $650,000. Craig offered the car to any of the prior bidders for $700,000 so that the seller would not take a $50,000 loss. No one offered up the $700,000, so Craig bought the car.

Not sticking up for him. I'm just stating the facts of what happened as they were reported on TV, and as I remember them.
