Many of these are examples of people trying to get Ebay prices
without the massive Ebay market.  A lot of conventional antiques
dealers with high prices and the time-value of their items trickling away
are learning the same, hard lesson:  20 people walking
through your booth do not have the pricing muscle of 
20 million looking online.  IOW: if you take it to a hamfest and
try to get an Ebay price ($44 BC-422), you're probably going to 
be taking it back home.
