These sold for $1000. Just like everything in the marketplace, the market decides the price (taking rarity, edition etc into consideration)
That does not justify a $500 premium. You do realize that there are certain things that are very rare and worth pretty much nothing? I'd like to see an example of 'the market' and other sales of the first edition, because if there was interest and the price was right, at least someone would have put a bid on it.
It is a sellers market when it comes to first edition metal TREZOR's. I can price it at whatever price that I feel comfortable with. If I want to depart with this magnificent piece of BTC history for $500, so be it. Who are you to say what it's worth is?
It is a subjective test. I think 90% of the items sold on bitcointalk are garbage, but that's my opinion. I'm not going to comment on every single thread stating my opinion.
For people who want a metal, well built TREZOR, they have an opportunity to acquire one, as there is no other way (unless one of the other few sellers decide to sell).
Thank you for your
opinion, but I respectfully disagree.
