I agree. I got carried away with the discussion in terms of the market being out of balance.
When two parties transact with the same information and the same method for establishing value then it is a question of different variables, i.e. I might use an 8% discount rate and you use 10%, or perhaps you or I are buying and selling for different reasons, like retirement, etc. These transactions are actually the most fun, because you don't mind having lunch with the guy or gal afterward.
