because they're back-order not-stocked items which have to be bought from Sharp specially (presumably for people who want the 860's specific hardware?)??

Hi Srono,

the SL-C860 is out of production and sold out since March 2005.
So it looks like a "Zombie-Listing" for me. Some shop with an old
price and a forgotten hight-priced unit that still lists it on the internet.

The unit may be new in the meaning of unused, but will be at least
12 months old.
