They'll take it as long as they want oil. Failure to pay the price means someone else will get it.
When the price becomes so great that no one can afford it, the price will come down.
The alternative to "taking it" is, of course, to take over the source of oil. I doubt that'll happen. Would be interesting, though, if all OPEC countries were taken to court for price-fixing. Enforcing any court decision might be fun.
