Accuphase E380 or E4000 integrated amp important from Japan

You have to check ebay from time to time. I purchased a Accuphase 380 for a very good price. I see that they have since gone up in price. Mine was converted supposedly by the factory. From inspection  there was no sign whatsoever of any modification. Arrived in quadruple boxes. The Dealer I worked with shows nothing for sale.

The markup is insane buying from a U.S dealer the distributor actually lowered the price because of slow sales the distributor is still making 100%+ markup vs price in Japan the dealers 45% . That’s why I would only buy a converted unit from Japan 

or look else where a nice alternative the Aesthetix Mimis integrated with a 

vacuum tube preamp section which can be bought for under $8k .

Did you end up purchasing the E4000?

If yes can you give me your thoughts ?
