Why are so many things on Ebay even more expensive then what the item would be brand new from the store?

I was searching for a Motorola MA1 Wireless Android Auto which is $80 brand new in a store, but on Ebay they are anywhere from $100 to $200. Even if it is pre-owned. It seems impossible that anyone is ever going to buy this so what is the purpose of these listings?

I, uh, still have my '99 Cougar. :) Bought it new. I don't drive it on a daily basis, though, and haven't for a long time. But it runs well!

    I'm not judging, hondas and Toyotas just have good reputations for longevity and ease of maintenance. I picked an integra with a manual transmission over a mustang but I get the appeal. I liked my cougar Xr despite the issues. I actually took a few pictures before I traded it in.2002 cougar Xr

    Oh I know, we had an Accord that went 7 years before it needed anything other that regular maintenance (and even then it was just that airbag recall). It was great!

    For all of its faults, though, the Cougar is a lot of fun to drive.
