So Vox Organs are Three Thousand Dollars Now?

So this craigslist ad seems a little steep to me. I love a Vox organ, and you don't see them very often (mostly because they had a pretty high price point when they were new), but jesus, $2800 is just too fucking much money. From the ad:
Tired of reading "Mint" then seeing JUNK? With the exception of the case for the chrome legs this Vox is mint! I was told by the previous owner there was less than 50 hours of playing time on this organ. Of course I have no way of knowing if this is true but the condition, action, and appearance is consistent with that claim. I've put about another 10 hours, max, of playing time on this beauty. No issues what so ever, all drawbars, keys, work and sound great. No replacement parts, transistors, bias pots, etc. that I can find. Complete right down to the warranty card, vinyl cover, pedal, and pouch for the wing nuts(which gleam!). The case for the legs have several scratches but it is functional. Imagine walking into a Vox dealer 40 years ago and playing a new Continental..... this is that close. I will have have the organ and legs professionally packed at my expense (never had a problem with these guys).If it was $1200, I would be much less aghast. To the seller I say, "Good Luck, Sir." To the eventual buyer I say, "I wish I had more money than I knew what to do with."
