It's just the idea of never having to pay MSRP that makes the HD 800 overpriced due to Sennheiser's pricing policy. If people pay $1500 and are happy with their purchase it's well worth it for them. Another cause may be that the HD 800 (and the T1) had no real competition back when they were introduced (around 2009) and both companies' flagships at that time were only around the $4-500 price point, and both the 800 and T1 were huge leaps above the HD650 or DT880 hence the MSRP were justified.
