This has been discussed a lot. Yeah if they were to sell it at auction the card would sell for far lower.

However there are people out there that dont care about resell of the card and want the card now apparently. Sometimes paying 5X the price is worth it for people. We dont live forever and why wait for something for 5 years (talking generally, i dont know how available the card at issue is ) if you can buy it now.

we buy things all the time that we lose money on.....most home improvements you are lucky to get a fraction of what you paid...everything isnt about re-sale, sometimes its just about availability and/or time among other things
