You know you're living life in BB right when you list a player at the mid to upper end of his TC range, get a bid on Thursday night on him, and then Friday's training causes a skill drop that switches his position and causes his TC range to drop by half. So for full disclosure, folks, the player that I'm selling for $275k that *now* has a TC of 100-170k is not me trying to fleece somebody, and in fact I suppose I should have listed him at 800k for a few months until someone bought him.
TPE's are not usually the best measuring stick of value anyway. The GM's factor in much more than that when looking at Transfer questions. Things were called pretty tight there for a while, it seemed like if a guy got $50K more that what most would consider normal, people kind of freaked out. That was never the spirit of the TPE, or the rule governing transfers.
The whole point is to dissuade "account transfers" and cheating in general, or the occasional time when a guy blatantly profits from a really stupid bid on one on his players :-) I think you are more than safe in this instance ;)
You hear that, guys? I'm not going to be punished. If you want to see the man take me down, you'll have to go bid up Poirier by several hundred thousand more, at minimum. I don't think the lot of you have the guts to do it.
