I always thought that was a million $ name what with its assumed high traffic and wide media use (in addition to CBS). Seller sold it far too low, imo.

It's easy to say they sold it too low without knowing the details...

True. That was said based on the reported price only. There may have been more involved but I doubt it.

I heard the seller was not aware who the real buyer was so if that was correct he likely did not hold out for more.
