I THINK YOU GOT BURNED! It probably costs over half that much to ship it from England. Did you know that only 12,000 of them were ever made? They are the single most sought after analog synth ever made. I happen to own one. I haven't a clue as to it's actual value but you can get digital components that can reproduce some of the sounds pretty close to the real thing for about $3000.00 I almost sold mine for $100. A friend told me to do some reseasch on it and I am glad I did! GAJETTUNES@NETZERO.COM
