Sure, there is usually an upswell of interest in new models, but it doesn't really take long for the novelty factor to wear off
I don't buy into the supply/demand/rarity either there are plenty of BLNR's on ebay and on here through Trusted Sellers to go around. Anyone that pays a premium for these I would like to sell some nice beachfront property I have in Lincoln Nebraska. Reminds me of the Milgauss GV years back when people were paying 20% over list for. That is insane.
