Hardware Costs for UV3R and UV5R

I'm looking at procuring a couple more of these radios and as I already have UV3Rs and UV5Rs I want more of these rather than something new.

I've looked on eBay and discovered that the UV5Rs are cheaper than the older UV3Rs which makes me curious. Is that because UV3Rs are better or just because it is obsolete and harder to source.

I understood that the UV5Rs are the better model and now that they have been out there for some time we should have evidence.

Any views?
