B747-8I are at the limit of efficiency, A380 are too big for most of the airlines/routes. B747 has also the advantage of a higher cruise speed and some clients (like me) prefer to pay slightly more for a flight over Atlantic that is 25-30 min shorter (return leg especially).

My thoughts exactly. If the initial market was small, isn't the secondary market going to be even smaller? Many of these frames are probably going to go to scrap way too soon.
