Well, the winner is esc1 who seems to have very deep pockets, so I have
no doubt the auction will be paid for. Unfortunately, it sort of looks
like he may have got bid up by someone just fooling around since the 2nd
highest bid is from someone with no feedback.

I am curious as to why you may think this Frank.  I just looked at the
bidding history, and as far as I could tell the zero feedback bidder doubled
the bid some days ago.  The winning bidder seems to have placed two bids
towards the end -- indicating to me that they thought the price was fair, or
in some way worth it to them for some reason.

Oh, I have no doubt esc1 thought the price was fair. I just get
suspicious when I see zero feedback bidders involved in these things. As
a seller, if a zero feedback bidder won an auction for an apparently
grossely inflated price, I'd seriously consider talking to eBay ahead of
time to minimize the pain of recovering the fees if they become a
non-payer.
