This is gray market pricing from a single eBay seller, which says nothing about the actual demand and has no impact on pricing of other sources.

People that want this camera are looking for the absolute maximum resolution and sharpness available (5DSR), and then they release a version that is slightly less sharp for only $200 less. Who will want that? If you're blowing almost $4k in a camera body, why save 5% and get something a tad less sharp?
No wonder the 5DSR is sold out and the 5DS is a leftover in most places. Of course its dropping in price, the 5DSR should have been the only model available.
Canon probably thought like others on this website that "no AA filter = moire = unworkable images" and rather than learn from Nikon's D800/D800E => D810 exercise, Canon is making the same mistake all by itself. What can you say? Nothing really.

Thanks

Even better that you can couple it with the quality lens innovation that we're not getting from Sony.

If you already bought the A7RII I would be seriously worried that its not only a grey market item but a Chinese copy product... ;D
