Are FC's worth more here in the NW compared to the rest of the nation?

It seems, everywhere on RX7 club, people act as if it were a normal thing to find good condition NA 7's for >$1500, and Turbo II's for >$3000. I mean, I picked up my NA FC for $3250. Granted, it was in really good condition, and, despite the fact I might have overpaid a bit, I don't really mind that price at all. But yeah, whats the big idea?

Not sure myself being a FB owner but I know that a S5 NA or TII more people will pay more here because you cannot seem to find a S5 anything here.

FC's are overpriced in WA, kinda sucks. So many other places in the nation you can get an average FC for 1k, sometimes 500 gets you a running one that may not have the best body or interior, but it runs.

In WA it's not uncommon to see FC's going for 2-3k+ especially TII's.

Yeah, I bought my (nicer) TII for $3750 with around 140k on it. The reason why I got it was because one, it was good looking and two, it was stock and unmolested.

TII's are so rare (especially s5's) that it's really a sellers market.
