Insane auction price of SACD?? over 2k

Ahhh the web. Since the Sony Es777 SCAD player can still be found at a few dealers as demo's etc for like $1,700, why are bidders going crazy over this one??? Just LAST NIGHT I put thier demo unit on lay-away at my LOCAL dealer for the amazing price of $1,700 and I get the full 5 year warranty and the selling dealers service. Now I can't believe that the one I bought was the LAST ONE IN ALL AMERICA. If you want one CHECK AROUND at the Sony ES dealers. GEESH.

I called both places and I believe only J and R still carries the SCD-777ES. I think Reference-AV still does too. So does the Sony Employee Store.

Pugstub, what does last year's price matter if you can get it NEW WITH WARRANTY for less today.

I've got some great Pentium 1s computers for sale. Only $1500 ea, they sold for $3000 3 years ago.

Let the market decide the relative value of stuff, if someone is willing to pay more, I say let'em. As for me, well, I tend to get a real good feel for the market price of gear before I spend my hard-earned money. Caveat emptor
