Surprised price of 1948 Gandhi FDC with single stamp of 1 1/2 anna & 3 1/2 anna.!!!!!!!!

Hello Gandhi Collectors,

Recently I was surprised when 1948 single stamp Mahatma Gandhi FDC was sold for more than 50 dollars.!!

INDIA 1948 GANDHI FDC WITH 3 1/2 ANNA :
Seller: Mumbaistamps2 (1600+ feedback on ebay since Jul-22-05 from UAE )
Buyer: fredbettin (35000+ feedback on ebay, Member since: Oct-21-98 Location:USA)
Description: 1948 INDIA MAHATMA GANDHI 3 1/2 ANNA ON FDC TO USA
Date Sold: 2/8/2011
Price: US $ 51.00 !!!!!!!!!!







Now my question is why buyer's are paying this much money. It is cancelled from Calcutta which is not even hard to find like from Nepal or Pondicherry etc. I can only see this is mailed to USA (so what) and also I don't see any arrival postmark cancel from USA.

So Why??

Also buyer of this cover has very high feedback and I see he is regular seller of Gandhi philatelic material on ebay. (Even I bought 1948 item once from this ebay seller/buyer (fredbettin)).
