Will prices of older Fujifilm cameras balance out when they normalize distribution of newer cameras?

Two price drivers

As others pointed out, scarcity of supply of new cameras and influencer buzz, especially regarding the older models are spiking prices.

I'm glad I got in under the wire. I love shooting with two bodies and after buying my X-E3 new, I started hunting for an E2. I bought one, then my grandson lost his Canon Rebel in a fire and I gave it to him.  I missed it and went out and bought an E2s and excellent condition. Then I started hearing buzz about first generation sensors.  I looked for a Pro1 but it was already becoming a cult item. I found an E1 at a great price ($225), also in wonderful condition and with a low shutter count and bought it as well.

I think next camera will be a new model.  I also have and H1 and am looking hard at the H2.
