    How is it that these things are as crazy-priced as they are? I'm not talking about the modules, I'm talking about the brochure.

    It's mainly the history behind it. This is the real deal, not a scan. It was produced nearly 40 years ago when that system was available. It's a rare piece of synth history. If someone does pick it up for that price hopefully they will take care of it. Money is relative though. To some $99 for this might as well be free. I remember years ago reading that a $250k Ferrari for Bill Gates would be the equivalent of buying a 25 cent pencil for the rest of us.
