I guess they are going to die with a lot of cards because they will never sell them at the prices they have listed, it may take years or decades to reach the prices they have and with the trend on many items esp post war on the slide the bin is even more insane. The good news for buyers is that there are thousands of other options and for sellers it is much easier to sell at a fair price.
