Why is BA incredibly more expensive than VA?

Mrs. BLG has just had a "'last-minute" LAX-LHR RT pop up. Leaving LAX Sept 10th, returning Sept 18th. Was planning on the "usual'" -- buy WT+ and MFU. While I was on BA site pricing it out -- $3,900 -- she was checking some other options -- Well, Eureka! She got the RT on VA Premium Economy for $1,350. That's a staggering difference for the same class -- So she decided to rough it in PE and save the $2,500. I've never seen BA and VA priced that far apart. Anyone know what's going on with this price discrepancy?
