Many collectors have lost the desire to collect HL's. They would love to get the price they paid or better, but Ebay has kind of set the going price.
Many collectors have financial problems, some need money for growing medical needs, some are having it tough in the current poor economy. Those issues force them to sell there beloved collectables for survival.
Why do they sell for less than what they paid? I would guess, something is better than nothing!
