If someone with deep pockets is desperate enough or clueless enough (i.e. pretty stupid), let them buy it at that price. The thing is, with more on the way (eventually) that buyer will NEVER recoup anywhere near what he paid for it - if they ever decide to get rid of it. But then some people don't care about burning money.
I mean, everything can be marked up by greedy people. Think concert tickets or now baby formula. Two years ago it was toilet paper or chlorine based cleaners. Ugh.
Ridiculous sale
Somebody is selling a Decware that sells at 2600 $ direct from the manufacturer for 4500 $ citing tha t you can pay that if you want to wait a year. This is a disgrace in Audiogon. Also TMR sales require you to go to their website and look for the product for information. Unfortunately the hobbiest mentality that predominated Audiogon Is being replaced by these dry, unfear actions and styles. What a shame.
