That person could, but that's not the point. If you want a Nagasawa, you'll have to pay the price for it. As much as aesthetics is up to each individual, so is value. Judging by the fact that he had Nagasawa do a custom for him and then got Joe Bell paint it for him, well, money or value isn't an object here. He obviously values the bike.
To each their own, as always.
