I think you are talking past each other.

The grandparent’s point was that these things retailed for lots of money when new, so they make the claim that the relatively small $250 LCD repair is reasonable.

I don’t agree that this is a logical conclusion to draw - anchoring on a 30 year old sale price seems self-evidently invalid.

All I was pointing out is these things did in fact retail for $X,000, regardless of the current value.
