There is definitely a high demand for the Ultimaker. There was 1 on ebay that sold for $3502 a few days ago. (see http://www.ebay.com/itm/ULTIMAKER-2-...item338c4fff27)

That's the only one that sold on ebay though. I don't know why anyone would pay $1000 more than retail, but I've see crazier things on ebay.
