I think it was an A3, it was parkerized, not blue. Manufacturer was Springfield armory.

I was told that the reason for the high price is all the serial numbers match. It didn't appear to me to be a pristine example, it had some dings.

It did not have the peep rear sight, so maybe it isn't an A3. I'm not an e pert on Springfield values, but 5500 seems like a lot. I already have an 03A3, so I'm not interested in it, just curious.
