Or they now think everything that is worthless is worth massive amounts of
money.

Hey, look at the bright side: as a result, they are much less likely to be
simply recycled as scrap.
I see quite the opposite. After a while of sitting, taking up valuable
warehouse space with no one expressing interest in buying them
they are likely to be scrapped as valueless.
I took great pleasure in telling one seller who'd pulled a board-set,
and recycled the rest, that the part he'd recycled was worth a lot more
than the part he'd saved. Hopefully that kind of news gets around.
And the seller probably laughed it off and sent the next batch to the
scrap yard fondly remembering you as some nut.
