I confess my ignorance of the market for WE items outside of telephony, but I have heard that some of their electrical equipment fetches a pretty penny. But this? Is anyone familiar with the market for this?

Well, that's a cool meter. It would look nice sitting on the shelf. I cannot see why they think it is worth so much. I would pay $45 or about 1/1000th their price. Oh well, guess they are looking for a fool.
It looks like their audio equipment has some big fans, as you can see here,
