Default Thought from the 'Selling Cards' thread

I was reading through the 'Selling Cards' thread where the OP raised a question as to why folks use current sale prices on ebay when trying to deal a price for a card. While reading, a question I have had for a long time popped back in my head and that is.....why do some sellers on Ebay list BIN prices that are so high they will never sell the cards?

I collect mainly post war cards, especially Milwaukee Braves players. I've seen the same Hank Aaron PSA 5s/6s sitting on Ebay for months with BIN prices that are 50 to 100 bucks higher than other sellers BINs. Do they really expect to sell the cards? Most people in retail want to move inventory. These sellers obviously don't care if their cards sell. Is it because the cards take up very little space that they don't price to move? Or are they looking for deals on the side where they wont have to pay ebay fees?
