Vintage Hammond USA 102100 Synth

via this auction
"Rare Hammond 102100 Monophonic Synthesizer. Made in the USA 1974/1975. YES HAMMOND MADE A SYNTH! This one of less than 50 working synths in the world. It is estimated that Hammond produced only 200 units. This is a fully functioning, complete with stand and smoked plexi music holder monophonic synthesizer... Little info is out there on these units. From what I have found they were probably made by Ikutaro Kakehashi the creator of The Roland Company and Hammond Japan. In 1976ish Hammond Japan made the 102200. Only around 200 units as well. They look exactly the same. Single 1/4" out. No midi. Neat synth. Nice action for 30+ year old vintage gear."

    Is there any particular reason why every surviving example of these things seems to be appearing on eBay at the moment?
