Hello George,
I am on your side. It has been Elecraft's promise that their kit is as good as
the assembled one. In addition, they will back up all kit builders to ensure
their success and up to factory specifications. I built a number of K2, KX1
and K3 on behalf of some hams (visual impaired) in the past.

Maybe Elecraft can weigh-in about the "Burn-In Time" for the boards used in
the kits.
I have all kits and suspect that my Elecrafts are actually as good as
factory except they were assembled by a rank amateur (Elecraftwise).
I do know that I had no qualms about modify the filters or motherboard for
the recent low freq operation; because I knew how to disassemble my K3.
If I ever have to trouble shoot any of the K-Line or KX3, I know where to
look once I get the schematic out!
When I first went from Kenmore to Elecraft, the availability of the kit made
it a know brainer to go to Elecraft.
The customer service and firmware & hardware updates have been the icing on
my Elecraft cake.

I disagree that factory built value is nil. When I bought my K3 I was told
factory builds went through a 24 hour burn in, and then checked for specs.
That to me is value.
If a used item is 75% or more of new item pricing, the warranty alone
decides for me to buy new.
