Thats shows 15 -on the ah- in EU and the history shows 1,2,3 just on 
Draenor for years. There could be dozens more in banks.
It looks like they just don't shift at the prices asked so they aren't 
worth 70k, until one person in EU has 70k spare and wants one. Then only 
one on onw server for a few seconds is 'worth' that level.

Interestingly all those available in that snapshot are horde, good old 
horde, so very very hopeful :-)

Of course taking these figures is a bit of a gamble, don't control the 
gathering, don't know how accurate, don't really know what sold what 
didn't and which items are the same item on it's 100th posting.
I could be completely wrong about availability and price but I reckon 
you lost a few k gold and saved yourself a few k gold in wasted 
reposting time. Breakeven, maybe.

  If you click on the data point it can give the seller, then you can 
examine the seller history . If you want something bad enough you could 
probably contact the seller and organise a direct sale before server 
transfer.
The few I looked at indicate most are held by serial bankers, likely 
they bought them earlier at lower prices. When bankers/sellers set the 
price you are in a mugs game.
