I think nick b is probably right in his interpretation of Rivs BLUG typo. It's not clear to me whether the HHH Tandem frames needed to be included at all. The HHH tandem is $1800, and they have just a few in stock. There's no plan to do another run, and the 'costs' of the ones in stock aren't changing. So, they will either stay at $1800, or they will go up just because that's the price they should have been in the first place. It's hard to say. It's a smart move to buy sooner rather than later, at any rate.
This does feed into the pretty-darn-good resale value of Rivendells in general. Since Rivendell doesn't have 'model years', you could have a 10 year old Atlantis that you bought for $1500. Sell it as a used frame and fork for $1000, and it'll get snapped up in minutes. You got a 10 year rental of an Atlantis for $500, and your buyer feels like they won the lottery. It's pretty great for that situation. It's not so great for somebody who knee-jerk buys a new Rivendell and then two months later decides s/he doesn't want it. That seller wants 80% of retail, and few people want to buy used at that price.
