Overpriced cards on ebay -- Are they part of a tax scam?

Phil,
I understand your feelings as a small business owner myself for the last 35years I can tell you there were many a day I just wanted to pack it in.
But in my reference to the one seller that was mentioned here it seems to me to be rather foolish to continue to put up the same item (in this case I will use a pin as example) at 3-5 times value for over 5 years,I know because the psa tag is the same one. And yes Scott even after emailing a more that fair price for an offer be told "I cant do that". No other reason just I cant seems to me to be a very bad business pratice. So you would rather continue to pay the relisting fee for 5 years, turning no profit,because for what ever reason you paid to much,or you just never have any intention to sell it. And this is not just on one item its on hundreds of items,to me that makes no sense. But I guess the logic is a homerun is better that a single!
