Quoted from Betelgeuse:It's hard to imagine SEs losing quite $2k. That would be a new full featured pin for $5k, and it would still be a hard sell? If it gets there, I think the NIB market in general will cool down somewhat.
The difference here is standards still have the same layout. The only things sacrificed are what buyers usually don't see as value-added mods anyway--target decals, an acrylic sign, speaker lights, and powdercoat--I can buy all of that or none of that from a mod shop. Standards aren't going anywhere near 5k.
