the fair price is what you are prepared to pay for it

some modules are normally scarce (not just because of the current ongoing global) situation - this is one of them

ie demand outstrips supply and therefore used modules command a premium

if you only want to pay retail find a dealer that will take pre-orders or contact the manufacturer and have patience, lots of patience...

Utility modules are the dull polish that makes the shiny modules actually shine!!!
