I don't think I have seen them go for this much before.

I think that's the highest I've seen, but it evidently is what the market dictates just now. Now stand by for a flood of them, which will run the price down to near nothing, like the $1100 Sony Indextron caused a few months back...

Staggering, I figured all the publicity would bring out the people who had never heard of them before.
I'm glad I picked up one a few months ago for a reasonable price (about $200) I actually have the set that goes with it though, that cost $10  I would love to know who actually buys these, they have been priced high for years, I can't imagine most of them going to the TV collecting crowd. Maybe it's the design aspect of it? You know, the Eames, Knoll, Saarinen, Noguch crowd? Maybe it's Museums? Maybe there's one in the MOMA, that's always guaranteed to drive the price up on anything.

Actually they are made of Plastic and Brass and not all that durable looking to start with, they could be reproduced but why, they'd be worthless then, at least the repros would be.

oh I know they would be worthless, but I would not put it past counterfeiter to try it at those prices. Of course the market is so small and "resonalbly" informed that it would not work.
I wonder what it would take to saturate the market, 50?

My god that is just plain dumb. I wouldn't pay that for a working 29JC20 roundie with remote. It does make me wish I had a flashmatic to sell, however. ^_^

I, for one, hope the price goes up and stays up...cause I have one, and it was free. Nice to know that if money really gets tight I can toss it on ebay and have a quick $500. For now, it sits on a shelf gathering dust! Personally the TV is 10 times more interesting than the remote.
