it could be drugs or money laundering rather than people actually paying that price for a real deck.

I could be wrong, but I would bet that launderers are probably not targeting this niche device. I'd guess that the people buying them are more likely from a country that they don't sell in. Like Australia for example.

That's not how laundering works, but it probably isn't laundering. The product is the excuse, the price difference is where the laundering happens.

Yeah, I get how laundering works. I just don't know why they'd pick this specific item.

They wouldn't, except for laundering on a scale too small to be worth going after.
