The OP is saying (I think) that, yeah, fbss *IS* worth 15k. But, it is ALSO an artificially inflated price.
The price of an item, and its worth, is decided by how much someone is willing to pay, period. There is no other consideration. If the supply doesn't keep up with demand, the price may soar. If the supply outstrips demand, the price may drop. The price doesn't have to track supply and demand.

Supply and demand may be called a law, but it isn't; it is an economic model. There is a big difference.
