<<But securities laws require that if you place an order at market, the broker is obligated to get you the best price. If you place a limit order, and the stock drops below the limit price before the order is entered, you get the lower price. The same applies when you sell a stock; namely, that the broker is obligated to get you the best price available at the time the order is entered.>.

Then it sounds like some broker violated the law. Either that or the trade was erroneously reported and never took place.
