I reckon that when early A380s start to be returned to lessors around 2020, we're going to see a massive drop in value, resulting in a situation just like the A340 where mid-life perfectly good A340s are worth ~20% of their original purchase price.
Lessors will see this and not buy any more. THAT is what will kill the A380.
