Maybe it was because word got around... "Oh that Grace Romig - better buy it now if you like it because pretty soon you won't be able to afford it."

Had the same thing happen when I tried to sell an RBL Launch Edition that didnt fit me well. Listed it at what I paid for it and it just sat there.
The prior seller saw the listing and e-mailed me with a note to mark it up by $300. With some trepidation I did so, and it sold in a week. Go figure.
