historical prices for digital backs when announced

hello everyone
I am trying to do a google search but not finding anything useful.
Does anyone recalls was the original street price of the PhaseOne digital backs when those were released ?
I am interested in these specific backs for Hasselblad V-series camera:

- PhaseOne P30 (released 2005)
- PhaseOne P30+ (released 2007)

Please share whatever country or currency information, I will do the conversion myself.
Thank you in advance.

thank you, Jan.
I thought it was much higher...
Do you mind me asking : how reliable this figure? Was it for P30+ back only or for kit with body and lens?

Cheers.
The back only, it is a price I dug up from 2007 (when the + edition was released) and is not neccesarily the launch price but it comes relatively close. In general V system backs are hard to come by but it seems the 30/30+ series are the rarest of them all. I at least cannot recall ever seeing them on the used market.

This reminds me that there was a guy selling his B&W digital back perhaps 6 weeks ago and if I recall he was asking around US$10K.
