Saw one for sale in the US for $8000 ? 
Yeah they go for that second hand. And anywhere from $9000 for a NIB! Not cheap.
If you love the game i would go for it if you can find one within your budget,that game is only going to get rarer and by the sounds of it more popular.
It is my favorite pin and i just missed out on one last week for $7500. Wanted to cry, i have been looking for one of these to come up for sale for the last 5-6 months or so and that was the first one i have seen. I replied within an hour saying i will take it but i missed out on it.
