call and offer him $500.
tell him it must be a misprint, because that's more than the retail cost for verything brand new, including the box and rack fabrication labor.

Got to be a typo...
either that or this person is out of his mind.
$5000 could get you 2 times better than that system.

or maybe he bought it all from will castro for like 20 grand. in which case, he would think 5 is a hell of a deal. that guy's able to rip off soo many rich people and make himself look good doing it.
