Krye, it won't happen anytime soon. I say this unfortunate fact while sharing in your sorrow over the auction sharks. Apple is perpetually in the news because they're doing well. They're making a movie about the life of Steve Jobs, as if the Pirates of Silicon Valley wasn't enough. I don't expect to EBay prices to wane until Apple's popularity wanes, and the media puts less emphasis on Apple. For most people (which exclude most of us), the old adage "out of sight, out of mind" rings true.
