The reason they are selling so many KN7000's on Ebay is because they are making money on them. Many people don't realize that Technics prices at most dealers are greatly inflated and the actual dealer cost and price they can sell it for is quite low. Its not hard to find a new SX-KN7000 for $2400-$2500 here in the USA its just a mattter of contacting the right retailer. I've heard of people paying $3,000-$4,000 and more for a KN7000 which bothers me. That means the retailer who sold it to them gouged them for a lot of money. Granted, they still bought an excellent keyboard but they paid far more than they should have for it.

The Yamaha Tyros is another example of inflated retail. The actual dealer cost on a Tyros is low enough that finding a new Tyros at $2200-$2300 should be easy but most dealers are selling them for $2600 or more. I'm all for my local dealer making money but at a certain point it becomes ridiculous what they try to charge. Just my .02 cents.
