If people are willing to pay that, it's the market price.

No, this is price discrimination. There are _some_ people willing to pay more to have it.

It doesn't represent that the aggregate demand is at this price.

It may not be the optimal point on the supply-demand curve, but if supply is limited, then the price is whatever people are willing to pay.

Do we have any evidence that people are actually paying that price?
