Worth is also determined by what other comparable products are out there to measure your value against (like the housing market and real-estate comps). With that being said, your competition @ ~$260K is one of these alternatives.

I look at SAI sort of like an internet stock riding the .com bubble of 2000, valuations have risen by SAI jacking up the price, but with no underlying reason to substantiate the increase - other than seeing what a "customer" will pay. The balance of supply and demand is at the tipping point imo, as evidenced by some SAI inventory taking longer to liquidate, and in some cases (like the 50th Anniversary CSX7000 Editions) leaving 50% on the table. The bubble is ready to pop (again imo), and when it does you will see a cost adjustment to re-balance supply and demand. Right now it's a seller's market, but get ready for that coin to flip.
