I've seen people pay more then what a part cost's new on ebay so thats a bad example...some people look at ebay as gambling...i mean its kinda "I have to win" mentality in alot of cases and people will bid & bid until they do in most cases. As far as new parts go i rarely buy them, they still havent lost enough value in most cases for people to take any reasonable offer for them. Used parts I've gotten for as little as 5-10% of their origonal value.

Bottom line is parts come in alll shapes colors & sizes...their sellers are the same and from one seller to the next you'll find huge differences in how they handle transactions, depending on how long they've had the part, what their current use for it now is, if they desperitly need the money or not, etc.
