What's so special about this ribbon bar?

This ribbon bar just went for $589 on eBay.

Now that the auction is over, could someone clue me in as to what is $589 special about this bar?

There was quite the bidding war on that one, so it wasn't just one person that thought it was worth a bundle o' money.

Wow.

i have to agree, if you add the prices of all the clasps together, its a fair price!

but most times only one of those golden shiny clasps are missing in your collection and you have to buy all

Do those clasps retain the same value as "loose" items versus being on a bar?
