Is that the same guy who buys things from ebay to resell them in Brazil for twice the normal price?

I do not intend to make a apology of the price chosen by the seller, but the fact is that the price on Amazon is $ 749.99 . With fees and transportation, arrives in Brazil as shown below:
Order Summary
Items: BRL 2.485,40
Shipping & handling: BRL 36,35
Total before tax: BRL 2.521,75
Estimated tax to be collected: BRL 0,00
Import Fees Deposit BRL 2.398,71
Order total: BRL 4.920,46
Or,
US$1643.6.

Insanity is everywhere online auctions are. Witness: this.
Sure, I'd like one. It's a piece of RPN history. That's a lot of airline tickets, museum passes, and hotels though.
Nigel Tout has a good page on his and that's all I can afford. Still; I wish I had walked into the junque shop that the seller did, about five minutes earlier.

Insane taxes might explain overall insanity:
