Building (not even scratch-building) a high-quality car kit is indeed time-consuming. ESPECIALLY urethane (which is what the Pacific Mountain kits are) although wood kits like this one are no joke either. Having constructed several for myself, if I were doing it to make money, even $125 probably wouldn't represent much above minimum wage. However, as several have pointed out, actual market value is a different matter. A somewhat nicer brass model of the same prototype can be had for $150-$170 with a known re-sale value, and this is the stumbling block that this seller is up against.
