One thing that feeds the problem is the desirable sets that get bid up to the moon, and the moderately desirable ones that get dummies to bid them up more than their worth...Then dummies think they can get some record high price for their 'similar' set every day.
The first tube (a Zenith hybrid actually) color set I bought was off ebay, and I got in a bidding war with someone over it. I paid 150$ for it in working condition. I feel a bit dumb about it now, but we were between homes in Florida (where tube TVs are scarce especially color sets) and here in Wisconsin, any tube color sets near either home were not showing up on the bay, and I wanted one REAL bad....I can imagine some loons saw that and thought their mid 70's Asian trash was worth big money.
