You're assuming they'll go for $500. I bet there are more than nine people who'll want them. Expect end prices more in the thousands.
TBH, it was more an observation that he would actually get paid something, unlike a secondary who shall remain nameless who didn't even get a percentage of the extra autographs and photo ops at last year's con, just a flat-rate fee while Cretin were raking it in off people buying extras.
