Well, you have a point...but I didn't think it was all that great a scanner.
I sold it for $125 a year ago...

I would say it's one of the all time greats, and I've had a hell of a
lot of handhelds. To be honest, I have a 93, not a lot of difference. I
have programmed about a half dozen of 95s for people and they all worked
great.

I'm not sure what could really be better, except maybe freq coverage.

I've used mine daily ever since I got it.

It'll take me probably another month to teach my new Icom IC-R20 all I
want it to know, but even when I get done with it, I'll run it at the
same time as my PRO-95.

I am really loving the IC-R20, btw. I'll write a more detailed review
after I've used it for a while, but so far it's just a joy to use.

Keeping things in perspective, the price of the PRO-95 has gradually been
lowered over it's lifetime. As I recall, when it was first introduced, it
was around $300.00. It's a lot of scanner for $129.99.

Geez, that's not much of a close-out price, though. I bought mine on sale
for $149 a couple of years ago. At half that price, they'd be a
reasonable close-out deal.

It's called supply and demand. If they sell well for $130.00 they will sell
them for that. If sales slow, and they have lot's of them in the pipeline,
the price will drop.
