yeah seems like this cryptonight machine have been profitable only to the ppl who made it.

Well the point is, why, if I produce a machine that bring me $200 per day should I sell it for $2000? I will make way more profit keeping it for myself.

The problem is that only few sellers produces/sells ASICs. So there is a strong market manipulation.

The exit way from my point of view will come when people will start to release software to use FPGA to mine. FPGA are available to the public and the software will include a share for the developer. This will fight the ASICs.
