I do not disagree with what you are saying as some of the conversions are pretty good.
As stated there was a BlackHawk Conquest 1 which was a good conversion and a few years back the values held up pretty well.
that was because Cessna no longer built a turboprop so if you wanted a Cessna Turboprop you bought the bog standard conquest 1 or 2 or needing fresh engines went for the BlackHawk.
Sadly now both the Conquest and earlier citations are what is classified as older generation i.e. around 1980 or 33 years old, with such a mass of CJ 1s 2s 3s etc spending that sort of money to convert an airframe worth $200 k does not make sense anymore.
I can remember taking a potential buyer to see a BlackHawk Conquest in the USA, then the asking price was $1.4 mill but that must have been 15 yrs back
