This all depends on the valuation elicitation process, which is pretty clever and, assuming that the subjects are acting rationality, does in fact elicit true values - at least as implemented in the paper I linked. As the paper goes into, others unknowningly tweak this process a bit and change the incentive structure, then (surprise) they get WTP-WTA gaps.
