I don't know about "retailing for $3000 when it was first introduced," since I only paid $1200 for my first one in 1991. However, those five complete card sets alone are worth $50-$75 each, so $650 including the synth ain't bad at all. I don't expect this one will be a hard sell... I'd snap it up myself if I had the accounts for it...
