Hold firm. You _might_ be able to find an equivalent, somewhere in the
country, for $4100, but then they also need to comp you for your time
and effort to locate and transport it.

Tell them they can pay _your_ valuation, or produce a replacement in
equivalent condition to what your's was, and put it in your driveway.
Let them try to do that for $4100. They're responsible for "making you
whole."
