There's a lot of that and I suspect a bit of price fixing as well. Demand also seems to be at an all time high, of course, which begs a few questions:
Where are all of these new fans? Instagram? they're sure not here. And most importantly, if brand popularity is at an all time high, where the hell are my new 4" Joes, Hasbro? It stands to reason that new product would sell well based on the price trends, and it also just might burst that bubble a bit. I miss 2012 GIJoe hunting. I've seen it before where companies rerun or do new runs of "stuff popular on the secondary market" only to see to languish. The first run of Transformers Alternators Tracks and Meister were exceptionally hard to find, quickly spiking in cost on the secondary market. They were subsequently rerun in new packaging...and saw relatively modest to slow sales.

I was looking to reacquire a SDCC Autobot Powerglide (the Red Rattler) - I bought one for $60 probably two years ago and now it's on ebay it's around $100 just for the Rattler (not the whole SDCC set). It's nuts.
