Matthias, the ownership of the much celebrated, often emulated but never copied Mellotron trademark has never, ever had a bearing on anything.  Most people remember Streetly first.  And it cost nothing to get and costs nothing to uphold.

I thought the US$500.00 increase was royalty payments to the UK for use of the name.

Cock up on the abacus front. Now only 200US below the Memotron. Justice for  the arrogance of calling it the  M4000D!
