You missed two things.

1) He didn't advertise a price. He merely mentioned the last selling prices
to give you an idea on how much it was new. His only asking price was "any
reasonable offer"

2) Nowhere did he mention HP is no longer supporting the printer. They
are not selling it anymore because newew models have been developed. Do 
you think HP would still be selling so many printers if they refused to
service and support older ones? There are a lot of LaserJet II's, 3's, and
4's out there. There's a difference between selling and supporting.

BTW, for a 10-month used printer, I'd price it at about $350 - $400.
