from here on I’m going to decide that all comments are referring to GW, as that seems to be the grounding here.

As far as  the ebay prices, that’s just people paying what they think it is worth to them, could be nostalgia, it could be that they expect to sell them on for more later.

As far as the simplification of better games, WFB, 40K, and the like goes that is very simple. These games were fantastic but limited the amount of money GW could make. If you only needed 15 space marines and a predator to play a full fulfilling and interesting game then it was a cul de sac for GW emptying your wallet.

As they simplified the games they lowered point costs and increased the amount of miniatures required to play. In some cases the only difference in new books was points cuts
