You must also realize it is a very common marketing practice to list an item for sale on a website at an inflated price, and then list it on ebay with a reference to the aforementioned "website", so that people will see the "website" price, and then figure the price on e-bay is a good deal. Not saying thats whats going on here, just that it's common practice.

Or how about that other marketing ploy - if you're trying to sell to the truely affluent, then you have to "price it high, or they won't buy" ie: you have to place the price way up there, so the "average" consumer" can't afford it, so it's "exclusive" to the wealthy...or they won't want it. Not saying that's involved here either.......................

Then again, theres the fact that it looks like a nicely done, sweet model, and will bring whatever the market will bear..........

OK, maybe I'm just bitter 'cause I want one!!

Of course, once the Chinese see this thread, it will be available two months later for $99, complete with fresh lead paint
