On the opportunity to add a Blackwell Pro 6000 to a home lab

Just some musing. I was searching on ebay for used RTX A6000, imagining (sweet summer child me) that with Blackwell introduction prices on Ampere had become more reasonable. It turns out that used A6000 are sold for a price close to the original card price. Brand new, or NOS at this point, price is actually higher than at launch. At this point I am wondering if the smart thing is, buying a Pro 6000 and selling my 4090. It seems to be a neat 5500 EUR expense, but 90% of which could be recovered three or four years from now.
