Default 240 auction values

Whilst idly scrawling through fleabay in order I get a valuation for my 244 I see there are no less than 7 in the classic-cars section, three being estates. However, what a range of valuations, from £1700 to a staggering £10,200. I am wondering if in fact any ever sell at this time of year at those values, as although these cars are good solid tanks, this time of year most people are bordering on skint! Surely only serious collectors of the rare and exotic, or those wanting donor-cars for theirs are able to spend big in the middle of winter, or am I wrong?
I would have thought that good used parts will move whatever the season, so people can finish their project, but a frankly over-priced "ordinary" car? I understand the P1800ES on the 'bay now, but a 240 auto saloon - surely not. I have been offered such for just a couple of hundred pounds, so are those ebayers dreamers or am I out of touch?
