Why so many Hegel's for sale?

I'm seeing a ton of Hegel units on the used market, especially the big daddy H590.  It seem to be a race to the bottom in terms of sellers trying to unload these things.  Nothing but good reviews online, but something must be up.  I have never owned one, but have always been intrigued.  The resale value though is always a concern for me as I swap out equipment every 6 months or so.
Any thoughts on these positive or negative?

Simple, integrated units are just a step a long the path. People decide they want something more and move up to separates. They rarely go down or even sideways. Not that Hegels are bad. They are not bad at all.
Millercarbon the reason there are not Moabs for sale is that nobody in their right mind will by them in the first place. When they do show up it will be for pennies on the dollar. One of the worst designs ever perpetrated on the audio market.
