Moral of the story...

Jumbos are great.
Hobby is fine.
Retail needs to be burned.

I assume no guaranteed auto, but at that price there should be.

I'm starting to think they do it on purpose. Things are too vastly priced over and under market that there is no way its on accident. Maybe the think selling some things cheap and the public watching things rise will help them sell more stuff like this that is overpriced. To the savy collector it doesn't matter. We can determine what something is worth. But to the Average Joe, they do not know any better. Maybe that is their business plan.
