I agree with the two colleagues above, speaking for the US and Canada. The buyer base for big fish is tiny because of very few people with big enough tanks.

That sounds like it was quite an unusual circumstance. It's kind of like when people say: "Anything can happen." Sure anything can happen. People do win lotteries every day but will you... just because you have a ticket? So, a priori, one is forced to consider chances and statistics, which define the value of your ticket or fish or any object which can be sold.
God forbid I am not trying to break you or teach you or to be a smarty pants. Just sharing some thoughts.
I personally have bought several 3"-5" Oxydoras niger for ~$25, two 7" for $50 each, two 1' for $100 each (seller wanted $150 for each), one 2' for $30 (one of my luckiest days it was!), and one 3' for $300.
