For some people (namely me) the ability to buy a 28g Repro for $4250 and experience a Parker first hand without taking a second mortgage was important. I was stunned with how nice it is and subsequently I joined this collectors association. Now I want more of them, Repro or otherwise. One could argue that it's all good in the end if more folks appreciate and preserve the "originals" after traveling through a Repro (did not use the word "real" on purpose). Oh and good for those who can afford a million bucks for a real Cobra, I suspect most cannot.
