[Leica] need help determining price of scanner to protect friendship

[shino at panix.com (Rei Shinozuka)]

i have the first version of the multi.  cost me an ungodly $2,000 new,
an amount which makes me cringe now.  

a new nikon coolscan 9000 is something like $1800 so i'd think some
discount from that price point is where you would start.
