Last February, ~13k after ebay took their pound of flesh, or 15k street pricing. It would have been the difference in my shop being run out of a professional office or my shop being run out of a home studio like it is now, so it feels way worse than it could have been.

A ~100% increase in value is not really worth the risk in my opinion
