Their rollers I've "seen" have been in the upper half of $70,000 depending on factory options (like a top, door pockets, under car exhaust, etc.).
I see FIA replicas for sale from time to time on Cobra Country but no slab side replicas. Why is that - lack of demand or do owners just keep them? I wonder how many ERA is making? Want to buy an ERA slab but retirement looms so first I'd like some clue as to potential depreciation.

Buy a slabside and enjoy it. Demand has likely increased for them since ERA and Superformance have gotten into the market with their beautiful offerings. Although demand will ebb and flow, over time, I think demand for the 427 will always be greater since it was the last iteration of the Cobra before going out of production in 1967-1968 or whatever. And the general population probably looks at the slabside as a cute little MG or Jaguar.
