PRICE VARIANCE FLAG: reported USD figures ranged widely across dealers/aggregators ($1,129 B&H to $1,679 MSRP/$1,499 MAP per Reverb) — used the explicitly labeled MSRP figure ($1,679) per 'MSRP/street if published' guidance; treat with caution. Elysia is a German, EUR-only manufacturer (elysia.shop lists EUR MSRP only); price_usd shown is USD street/list price from a US dealer as cited, not an official elysia USD MSRP.
