Can someone with more knowledge than me explain why these aren't cheaper, given there is clearly a strong demand? I imagine they have some margin to play with.
As said by our Australian/Canadian friends. Overseas sales are taking a real hit due to the USD exchange rate, in the UK the price is really hard to swallow for what this machine offers. This means the second hand market will also be pretty grim. Still if it's a home-run we always find a way!
