In the first few days, the dio sets were selling for $400 total shipped. Now that a lot of people have paid/are paying $250 just for the Turtles, sellers are wising up to the fact that they could get $500 if they just sell the diorama and figures separately.
You mentioned that the market was coming down. My point is that it's holding steady, if not increasing just a tad based on what people are asking for the dios.
I emailed BBTS to ask if they were going to carry the set. They said they didn't know, and that if I could, to try to get it where I can. I don't know if that's just the company line...though I wouldn't be surprised to see leftover stock there later. Joel's got his fingers in a lot of pies.
As far as your breakdown of eBay seller costs, that's accurate, at least to someone who sells quite a bit on eBay (me).
