Maybe he paid $120 and is selling them for $125. Or maybe seller A has 10,000 in stock and can sell them for $50 while seller B has 5 and can only do $125. Bottom line, please point out deals and don't try to screw a board member.

I completely disagree. Market pricing dicates over everything...have you seen the economy and housing? Just because someone "B" paid too much when they bought their house in the "boom" doesn't mean I should have to pay a premium for it in the recession when they're trying to dump it. He said they had like 10 sets laying around, clearly they have their profit margin, but my issue is that if someone is selling them for $85, the $85 guy is still making a profit. I doubt these things are coming from tons of manufacturers, so if he's selling them for $85 and making money, I can only assume BMW is buying the same ones and selling them for more, therefore they either need to come down to market value or they can have them sit on the marketing shelf, just like houses.
I hope to god I never see you in WalMart, Costco or any strictly online stores, only in mom and pop stores to support their inflated prices because they can't buy in volume, therefore charging more.
