When something is outrageously priced, I always wonder how they settled on that number.  Did he start at $3k and just kept going ?  Why $9000 ?  Did he figure someone will pay 9K but not 10K ?   At that price point, how could another $1K make a difference ?  Getting shot 10 times is really no worse than being shot 9 times.  The end result is the same.   If you're going to gouge someone, don't settle for a mere 400% of market value....shoot for 800 or 900%.  Asking price should be at least $15K.   He'll be mad when he sells it !

I remember seeing a nice Spirit at the Chicago show a couple of years back, with an asking price of....$1200.

Yeah, he seems to have a really bad rep on RGP but only amongst a certain group.  People appear to either hate him or love him, depending on their experience with him.  I don't know him at all, but I think posting outrageous prices on machines that you don't really want to sell is a waste of megabytes.  I could put every pin I own up for sale and just put an asking price that would make everyone shake their heads, but why would I bother to do that ?

By the way, I have a beautiful Paragon for sale ~ asking $4500.
