simple laws of supply and demand.
in the case of the scx scenario.
The product was dumped in the far east. a distributor buys a load of stock with 50% presold ie instant profit. The nascars have a low demand and so are then offered out again at a fraction of what they should be.

In my simple mind the value of something is what you can get in an open market. Such as an auction. In normal circumstances the real value does not occur as the items are bought and sold in a controlled environment.
Do not forget that the inland revenue will penalise anyone trading without a view to a profit. This means loss leaders could jeapodise your trading costs being allowed.
