Probably someone trying to make some money off it. Even new they weren't that much money, however watches can get upwards of $1,000 very quickly and some are in the six-digit range.
Broke a 2 year old model of the 151 MIP and then went to the manufacturer for this last years Pro Model, a 152 Midget Mafia. Super awesome. Kinda stiff for some stuff, but still an awesome board. Flat camber + MTX is awesome

It was from amazon, originally I was only aiming for a 1TB, but decided I would eventually run out of space in the future so I just doubled up. I was also gonna get my own separate HD and get an external extension, but that would already equal 80+ at least for a decent set up. So I couldn't go wrong with this deal, it'll be the new one I carry around.

I can't wait to ride it, smallest board I've rode was a K2 Jibpan 153 so dropping down to a 148 should be real interesting 
Plus its more motivation for me to continue/start losing weight hahaha
I've heard a lot about Capita's top sheets going to the way side quicker than others. Saw a thread on snowboard forum about using a file (i think?) to shave down the boards edges. From what I read, it works really well for saving the top sheet. May give that a shot. I've been hunting down a 2009/2010 Capita Charlie Slasher & Ultrafear FK for a couple since they came out and just scored a 151 Ultrafear FK on eBay Pretty good shape too. Has a few stickers on the top that'll be coming off (love that years top sheet design) and the base has a few scratches, but nothing that looked to be another close to major. Sssoooo pumped on finally finding one!!!
I'll post some actual pics when I get it, but its this same board for those who care:

Absolutely. With the DCCD in auto on pavement around tight corners the tires are much more firmly planted. My car is stiff as it is, but this made such a big difference. I've got KW v3 coilovers, DMS race camber plates in the front, Group N mounts in the rear, cobb 25mm sways front/rear, cobb adjustable sway mounts in the rear, and MSI endlinks in the rear already - this was the next logical step and it really helped stiffen things up. The car is also making far fewer squeaks and creaks in the rear now. I highly recommend this setup.
Next step: trim the spare tire cover and carpet, and install all the Raamat and Ensolite I bought like 3 months ago. Operation: sound deadening!
