yes, that's it: his prices are out of this world; it seems collectible items (same with vintage guitars, collecible amplifiers such as Dumble) show a growing tendency of reaching for another galaxy; the first electric guitar I bought as a student in 1968 (a gold top Gibson Les Paul Standard) that would not sell for 8.000 EUR five years ago is sold in the US for about 25.000 $ these days; I often ak myself who would pay such prices; the last Noctilux 1.2 I saw at Ebay went for about 4.000 EUR, but it is was of course not mint; I'm glad the Noctilux 1.0 does the same job for less than half that price (I have the older "Made in Canada" version with the detachable hood); I'll keep my 1,4/35 Aspherical and my Gibson guitar, though, to buy me a place in an old people's home some day....
