Leica gear is generally expensive, and the Summilux (= F/1.4) lenses 
even more so than most other equipment. Leica M stuff also tends to have 
a rather high price used, thanks to people who just want to have it on 
their shelf, preferrably in a sealed box. But most Leica stuff doesn't 
beat the FA50/1.4 in terms of used price relative to new price, I think...

In some respects it would probably be just as fair to compare the lens 
we are discussing here with the Summicron 50, though, and the price of 
those isn't *that* much higher, at least not used...
