Outrageous price for a catt on eBay

[Cattleya17]

I don't understand why people charge prices like this! It's a cattleya mossiae var semi-alba H&R. I bought this exact plant of the same size from H&R Nursuries and it only cost 40 dollars or so this guy is charging nearly 200 dollars with 15 dollar shipping which is outrageous look!


It's in a 5 inch pot! I emailed him and asked why and got no response of course! Do you really think someone will purchase it? If the plant were huge I could understand. A specimen of this plant would demand that price or more, its a sight to behold in person, pictures don't do these flowers justice I can't wait for mine to bloom again! At this size 200$ is a joke.
