Many of the acts that play the casinos here request B3s with their backline requirements. My friend at the music store has several and he sends a truck with two guys, leslies, dollies, etc., and has everything all set up for them.
You'd be surprised how many still request DX7s!
He makes more off one backline setup than he would in six months of selling arrangers at the price he has to make them now. So he doesn't sell arrangers any more. By the time he buys the arrangers, pays freight, and of course has to charge sales tax, he can't compete with the on line guys and make it worthwhile. If he gets stuck holding one or two that don't sell, he is in the hole, and this is such a small market chances are they won't all sell. BTW he has a BK5 that can be bought RIGHT.
I'm pretty sure Vanilla Fudge had roadies!
