Your analogy is flawed... He would pay double to be certain the proceeds go to the company instead of someone else. He would in fact be making an extra investment in the company... It's like paying more locally to support local business instead of buying the same thing cheaper on the internet.

Buying a $5 bill from you for $10 has no chance of adding any value to his purchase, unlike buying the shares at the offering price instead of market price. He's betting the cash injection straight to the company would then jump-start a series of events that would drive the share price to levels above the premium he paid for it.

I'm sure you knew all that already... Just putting it out there for the others.
