What on earth is the logic behind raising the price of this condo?

Raising it by 4k does seem odd. Best I can figure out, is that people raise prices knowing that people are going to make lowball offers, so they're trying to raise the starting point...

Does seem strange; maybe the first listing was a typo and they didn't notice till 4 months later?
