Was it more than $200,000 or not?

It wasnt a dumpster find, which is what you claimed.

So how is your post in context of a joke? Its not. The video is a "joke" (apparently, not clear at all) and you made zero suggestion of joke.

Guys, please knock it off. It was tongue in cheek and not serious. :palm:

As others have said, such prices are not unheard on the scientific markets. The R&D, materials and the very specific group of users exert enormous pressure on the manufacturer to recover the costs in the early life of such equipment. Over the years the technology catches up and tends to push the prices down (case of the TDS784 mentioned above).

At work I have been using turn-of-the-century VNAs that were absolutely above anything I would have imagined using back then - on par of whst you mentioned. Nowadays they are hauled around the lab as any other equipment and some even scoff at their older Windows 2000 OSes. I love them and bring an air of nostalgia to me...
