Default LAK-12 Question

I have noticed over the years that this glider sells for what seems to
be a very low price given that it is a near 50:1 glider. But I notice
lately that there are also some for sale on Wings & Wheels with
relatively low total time:

320 hours $21k
260 hours $20k
200 hours $15k

Other than the obvious issues of dealing with a more cumbersome glider
to assemble, ground-handle, and store, is there some other inherent
problem with these gliders? I would expect to see a lot more hours on
gliders of this vintage, and a higher price for gliders of this
performance.

TIA
