DW drums being "Overpriced"

Why do people seem to think that DW drums are way more expensive than other high end brands and are "overpriced?" DW Collectors kits seem to be priced on par with Pearl Reference, Sonor Vintage Series, Yamaha Absolute Hybrid, C & C Drums, Sakae Drums, Gretsch USA Custom, Ludwig Legacy, Sonor Prolite, Yamaha Phoenix, Tama Star, Sonor SQ2, Pearl Masterworks and Tama Starclassic maple. Craviotto drums, Brady Drums & a few others cost more!... And they're all worth the price of admission in my opinion! Are people just comparing high end drums to midlevel kits and not comparing apples to apples?
