It’s an extremely niche product, to be fair. The general public was never going to buy it, and diehards will buy it at a premium price. When you consider the small manufacturing runs they’re probably planning, the price seems less ridiculous IMO.
I wouldn’t pay $300 for it, so I don’t claim it’s a “good value”, but I can understand from a mathematics of manufacturing standpoint why the price is something like that.
Feels a little pricey to be successful. A pity.

You can still get perfectly working original ones for less. Why would anyone want to spend more on a knock off?
It might not be a “first edition” but it’s definitely not a “knockoff”.
It literally runs on AMD 🤣
You know that an AMD FPGA is not the same thing as an AMD CPU right?
What are you on about? Did I mention CPU?
Better value than a cocaine or Warhammer habit, probably not as good value as a good chainsaw
Lmfao, what a scale!
They cost $2,000 (in 2025 $) when they released in 1982. Sounds like a deal to me!
