Not sure about a couple Hundred Bucks. A quick ebay search show, that over the Past 30 days 400 of them has been listed, Less then 10% sold, Mostly for just under $50.00, The few that did sell was really unique one Two of which was Santa ones. They all seem to be a bit different and with that many of them out there compitition is high. Also the market for Nutcrackers don't really seem to be what it was like 30 years ago.
