It's over-priced.
You can see 24-channel Trident 65 boards go for under $5k on eBay.
He's only asking that price because he spent a lot fixing it...but that doesn't always bring/guarantee a much higher price when it's sold.
This one would look nice in my studio (of course, I would have to expand my studio!)...I'm just waiting for the BIN price to drop on it....................by about $70k!!!!

These days I'm quite happy using my old Roland SMX-880 8x2 line mixers. I think you can pick those up on eBay for less than $100 a piece.

Nice consoles, no doubt, but in my case neither one would really improve the quality of my musical recordings, they'd just take up valuable space (and money!)
I only record one or two tracks at a time, coming from a preamp, a DI, a bump box or a line mixer, and I just mix the 8-track and maybe a couple of synth tracks.
