Fair price. Anyone could have bid on it. They were smart enough to actually do it.
Btw, there was $3,000 worth of work done on it by the original owner. It was picked up on a flat bed, taken to the Honda dealer. (not the one who purchased it) All fluids were changed and new tires put on and any other service required. Then delivered to the auction site on a flat bed.

I think a lot of people were saying that $21.5k seemed to be a fair price. Sure they could have tried to bid higher and maybe they could have gotten it, but at what point is it too high? I wouldn't pay $24k.
$3k for tires, fluids, and two tows? That seems really steep. I don't know how far they towed it, but I'd expect that to be under 2k. In addition, sure 750 miles sound good, but I think they would have been better off driving it another 50-100 miles instead of towing it to better make sure everything is all good.
The car went for $19,5k. Does the auction house charge the seller a fee or %age as well? Even if it doesn't then it looks like they got $16.5k for the car.
I'm sure if it was listed online for "$18k firm, needs original tires and fluids, should be changed" it would have been snapped up easily and the estate would have taken home more money.

At $27k, that car will sit for a long time. It will take a die-hard Honda fan who wants a low mileage S to go after it, and most people are fine paying thousands less for a clean example with normal mileage.
Now knowing that a dealership bought it, the car might have sold for a higher price because the dealer already had a resale price in mind.

The car had several bidders and sold for $19,500 plus 10% buyers premium for a total of $21,450. This does not include sales tax.
