Re: Clarinet Prices Skyrocketing?

I've posted before my Buffet purchases (R13) new.
1971 $250 US
1979 $520 Canadian
1999 $2,000 US
A player in the band where I play bought one new for $6K US (maybe not R13?)
Yet, I bought a new Selmer student model in 2018 for $165 Canadian (usually these & Yamaha student ones are about $400-500-- not much more than in 1980).
Guess the prices simply reflect what one is willing to pay?
