I'm no fan of high prices, but I'd rather see Jim (or another eBayer) sell it for too much to an active hobbyist than see it go for too little to a collector/hoarder.
High prices won't last forever, though. Eventually, the "lucky" buyer will default on their credit card balance and leave the rest of us with the bill in terms of higher interest rates (assuming you carry balances and accrue interest--I don't). ;-)
