I got an SE recently. I'd say 2000-2500 is normal for the SE.
It IS fantastic though... the detail and size is amazing. I think the signature and the snow speeder crashed in the base with snow really makes it stand out. I'm of the minority maybe but I prefer the paint on the SE. I kind of like the leg up on the LE, but not enough to outweigh the rest of the SE extras.
The one you purchased was also broken or missing a small part though if I remember correctly?
