my guess, two reasons:

1. they're worth more as bushings than as Strikers
2. chaput still hasn't released abec11 bushings!

Pavedwave's right. Conservatively, they are worth around $80.ish as bushings ($5. per pair).

I forgot to post a pic in my last post. here's a destroyed 76mm Superball. It did not survive day one of the break in period. Oh well.
