This is not an uncommon question on many "different" passion/hobby sites.Regarding virtually any expensive proposition.
There is no short answer,and it almost always becomes an opinion piece/thread.
Just yesterday this kind of question was asked on one of my often visited "Fretted Musical Instrument" sites.The poster wanted to know why some Boutique guitar builders can get away with their pricing structure.No short answer,but overall performance,like that of a high quality arm and design,materials,voicing,warrantee etc comes into play I'd think.
If you have the cash,no harm...and...some folks do get a kick out of owning something with perceived "specialness",even if it's not there.No harm in that,and it makes folks happy.
Human nature,I'd guess
