DOn't be silly! [how can they justify selling those things at the original prices, since they are probably still making a profit at these extremely low prices). That's not the way things work at all. When you have surplus junk, you sell it off for whatever you can get for it, before the value drops to $0. This generates revenue, but very often things are sold way below the original cost. It is much better to sell something at a loss than not sell it at all, providing you don't damage your current market by doing so (in this case that's a pretty clear bet). It always AMAZES me to realize that there are people who actually think you can make a profit selling something like a port replicator for $9. Reminds me of some guy who demanded to know what IBM was going to do with the "big profits" they got from selling some beta release of OS/2 for some price like $15 or somesuch.
