Purchasing a RTW in Germany/Advice

I am seriously considering purchasing a business class, 29,000 mile Star Alliance RTW ticket in Germany.

Is 4,299 Euros still a current price?

Any recommendations for point of purchase, a travel agent? LH directly?

In the past (1999 & 2000) I did experience problems getting "inventory" on some *A carriers when using an RTW, like SQ. Is this still an issue to consider when ticketing?

I plan on originating/terminating in FRA, using an award to get to/return from FRA.

Routing (very preliminary) is (Award BOS - )FRA - HKG - SIN - SYD - SFO - RNO - SFO - DEN - COS - DEN - PHX - TUS - PHX - DEN - STL - ORD - IAD - MCO - MIA - FRA (Award - BOS) on LH, SQ & UA

I am looking to re-qualify as a SEN on one trip.

Add'l advice & comments welcome.

Thanks
