$4000!!! lol. They're out of their minds. I DJ'd for years in my youth, and I still have my 1200s. One is an M3D, the other an MK5. I also have 6 (yes, 6) Vestax turntables of various types.
1200s aren't audiophile decks, they're for DJing. Direct drive with a giant electric motor right under the platter. Way more 'rumble' than an audiophile deck. Technics is vastly over estimating the allure of having a 1200. These days there are tons of companies making DJ decks that are fantastic. Pioneer makes decks every bit as good at the old 1200s for around $700.
I predict the price will drop rapidly to around the $1000 mark in short order.
