Sure it's ultra rare, but so are lots of things. Steve Balboni's game used jock strap is probably a one-of-a-kind item, but how much would it go for? A bad example I know, but rarity isn't the sole factor that determines price. I would definitely pass at that price, unless you feel you can't live without it.
Bottom line.... it's a generic piece in which production was freakishly halted. I don't think the market for this piece is big enough to warrant anything over $3K. Just my opinion.... I think the seller is being greedy and that it would go for maybe $2,750 in a Lelands or Legendary type auction.
Hope this helps!

Agreed.
Even with the Steven Balboni part....
