Then again, maybe the dude doesn't really want it to sell but is trying to apease his wife ;-)
Just kidding on that one. My wife thinks that what I have invested in the Miggies I own is insane and I can't say that I have even broken the $1000 (USD) mark yet.
I think between my 2 A1200's and my A4000 parts, I have invested around $650 USD -- This includes the monitor I bought which is just an old 1084S with sound non-functioning.
So in actual computers, around $600 USD all total. I think I have paid fair pricing for everything so far. And though I wouldn't personally spend that much (mainly cause I don't have it), I know it looks about par for the course.
Just my two cents there :-)
