I'd say the $80 was quite reasonable, and the lack of response should not be
read as a lack of interest. Probably most of the train folk are like me, and
don't often (or ever) check market.auction. Hope to see these relisted or
available in non-auction form.

Perhaps another way to purchase them would be to send four (new?) switches to
you, plus a conversion fee.

I'd be interested in the expansion pack too. Sounds very useful! (But post about
it here on .trains, please!)
