What's the problem? I had one of these on my bench last week, and they are pretty nice units. -I tested out a couple of 6386's in them.
The price may be optimistic, but this version has been out of production for a good while, so it's got some rarity value.
EveAnna has been known to pay the forum an occasional visit, so perhaps you might consider revising the title, since when I first read it I thought it implied that MANLEY themselves were doing something wrong...
...whereas I assume that you just mean the seller is being hopeful with his pricing... He's only asking about $1800 each, and -while that's probably on the high side- it's not hopelessly unreasonable I don't think.
