no but in all seriousness:
I have seen auction prices go way out of whack as well sometimes.
I remember how the NL5xHaze seeds broke all kind of records on price. Going for as much as SSH packs went and all that.
Sometimes 3 people want the same strain and they really want it NOW because their time-table requires them to get it asap or whatever.
Then they outbid each other and the remaining 2 still need the seeds ASAP and it has to be that particular strain.
So next round they will bid even more aggressively.
In the meantime, a fourth guy is interested in NL5xHaze but was a bit scared off by the agressive bidding of the other 3. But when the new auction goes up, he will bid at the start at least and get the ball rolling.
Soon enough you will have a 4-8 week period in which NL5xHaze always goes for 30 bucks and up.
After everyone got their packs, that will die back down though and if you are able to wait out such a phase, you will find NL5xHaze to go for about 15-20 bucks a pack after that whole thing is over.
If you are looking at price/deal, then you gotta invest some time (sometimes).
If time is a factor and you need the seeds NOW, then you just gotta bite the bullet and pay some more (sometimes).
