That's most of it. Has to be because it's not like they are rare, or the motors are so expensive. Tractor itself without a motor isn't worth much, and you can buy a motor for under a grand. It's all about what people are willing to pay. I know several people (some members, some not) who buy diesel cubs under $1500. I know someone who got a running 782D a couple years ago for under $1000. It's all about waiting and paying the right price. They reason they list so high, is because people will pay it. I guess the only other reason is replacement cost. But we all know that if they were selling the same cubs we collect now for new price they would be unaffordable for most of us. All about the cool factor.....
