Mininovas have been out for many years now and used ones are going for only a little less than new.
The Casio CZ-101, which was considered a toy by some in the 1980's, sold for a few hundred dollars back then and still commands roughly 65%-70% of its original price tag all these years later if in good condition, and that wasn't even a limited production run. I see the Mininova potentially doing the same thing -- it's small and makes some quality tradeoffs, but its kind of like a modern version of the CZ line. And, who knows what someone will pay for rare gear -- as I said I wouldn't pay a premium for it but some folks do go after collector's items. If that's anyone's reason for buying one I'd say bad idea but I can still see the Morodors going for more than the mini on ebay one day.
