Not a bad price, actually; probably would bring more on ebay if the sniper-nuts began butting heads over it.  But for actual shooting, the long eye-relief B models were optically inferior to the As, because of the smaller, dimer, field–a consequence of the long relief design. MVA is now making a repro they call a B model, but optics of it are vastly improved, share nothing with the original.
