Exactly last night I saw this it took me a few minutes to get it to pop up on Google Flights and then have the price push through to AA.com I thought about throwing a hold on it, but with the mistake fare I figured I should go ahead and pay now and try to get it to ticket sooner rather than later. The whole thing is/was a gamble, but I figured not using the hold could put me in a slightly better position. I have a $20 base fare, so I am hoping that I will be spending a couple nights in Beijing in May.
