Vision is maybe a semi-popular character at best, using the old outdated MU body. If someone is a moc collector, I maybe kind of understand paying through the nose for him. Otherwise, almost every custom Vision I've seen blows the original figure out of the water.
A custom isnt an original though...no matter how nice. A modern Babe Ruth baseball card with sharp corners and a a shiney front with holograms is much nicer than one from 1924.... but it still isnt an original.

Vision is worth $70 to $100 loose now.... in a few years it shall be worth even more. After the movie figure comes out interest is going to go through the roof.

You can buy a chevy or a maserati...both are cars. Also a lot of the auctions start low and it is buyer driven high prices... not scalper prices.

Bottom line is if you want a premium item you pay a premium price no matter what industry.
