Your post made me curious so I did an eBay search of current and completed items. There is one open auction for a used OASYS and no other auctions in the last 15 days.

http://cgi.ebay.com/KORG-OASYS-WORKS...temZ7419168607

The item curently has no bids. Will it sell? We don't know yet. If so, will it sell for the current asking price or higher? None of us know -- the auction doesn't end for another 6+ days.

If it does sell and the price is somewhere between $6,200 (asking bid) and $7,999 (MSRP), that doesn't really tell us anything other than expensive new musical instruments, like expensive new cars, immediate lose a little bit of their value once they have been driven off the lot (err...taken out of the box and played) 99% of the time.

It's a little early to jump to any conclusions.
