There's one individual who has posted countless times on this forum that he considers both the 300 and the 100-400 to be overpriced. All this means is that he can't or won't afford them. Clearly others can, and are enjoying both lenses greatly. I do wish he'd stop.

So do I......personally I believe it's because they want one or both of them but can't afford them so they will talk and talk about how they are way over priced.  Maybe if they spent all the time defending their view of the lenses being to expensive working some extra hours they could afford them.
