No, it is called supply and demand, fewer parts can demand higher prices as more hands try to get less items.
If it cost me $100 to by it from OZ and $50 to ship it and $25 to FedEx and $35 to Canada Customs one should sell it at a loss?
Keep checking the meets but even those sellers look at eBay for prices.

I see the connection now, you were the seller on ebay?
I was in the game 25 years ago and managed to hang on to a lot of stuff bought at those 'back then' prices. No, I wouldn't want you to sell at a loss and supply and demand is valid, but a 'buy it now' price on e-bay is usually code for "how bad do you want it?" At times it really boils down to whether you want it bad enough at the going price, or if your budget goes after something that you 'need' even more. I'd love to get your belt to finish up a 22 set and if you have a best price PM me. Maybe we can make a deal.
