And what does make this synth special in any way? Or asked differently: with "sounds interesting", do you mean you listened to and played with it, or you think the specs look cool?
In that price range, I'd say - get something used:
   * for a very characteristic and flexible VA sound engine (which does
     everything the Venom does and much more), get a Waldorf Micro Q
   * for true analog, get an Oberheim Matrix-1000
   * for a VA kinda-workstation with a not exactly nice, but very
     characteristic (think 80s elektro) sound, get a Quasimidi Sirius
   * for maximum flexibility, a Clavia Nord MicroModular,
   * if you need the
 12-voice polyphony, Access Virus
   * for a great soloist's synth with excellent flexibility and
     playability: Korg Prophecy
   * ...and the list goes on.
Or did I miss something with the Venom that it can do which no other synth can't?
