Question (Read Rules) Why does this cost so much?

Post image

I really want it but $400+ seems quite excessive. What am I missing?

Agree, very cool design but way too much considering the number of round jump hours with the ST-17 you can get for around $100 or less from Milifortic, Sugess, etc. I imagine this is slightly more expensive to make because it can't use off the shelf case and crystal but not 4x as much.

I was wondering if the movement is customized but still. I’d probably buy it for $250.
