Sounds a bit suspicious.
The ad states:
"may not be available till the end of this year." So how did he get one?
And the shipping charge:
"$107.16 Economy Shipping?" Economy Shipping?
Ouch!

It also says "why wait? get it now". Some financial issues came up, thats why it is being sold. The 88 keyboard weighs over 50 pounds and is a rather large box. Depending on your location is what the shipping is based on.

Well if someone is in a hurry with money to burn, and this is a legitimate ad, go for it.
However, many online stores will offer free shipping and per-order discounts on the Kronos 88. Personally, I think it's worth the wait to save a few
hundred dollars.

Some people would rather pay a few more dollars and avoid the wait.

I suspect that person works in a music store and bought it at a discount. He may not even have the keyboard yet.
