Vendetta Research SCP-2a price out of line?

Hi,

   I’ve been looking for a Vendetta Research SCP-2a for some time and the ones I have missed out on are all around the $2500.00 used in very good shape. So while searching recently I came upon a excellent shape on the Audio-Marlt European site. After contacting the seller who is rated highly, he was asking 6000 euros for the Vendetta. Not knowing the conversion rate I checked online and at todays prices was $6360.00 in US dollars.

    Now I’m not adverse to someone making a buck on an exceptionally nice piece of gear, even one as highly regarded as the V R phono stage but come on! That’s at least 2 times higher than I’ve seen, and being generous at two times the price but vintage stuff couldn’t have appreciated that much in the past year and a half could it? Just seemed a little out of whack. Your thoughts?
