hand made I assume?

given the time and materials put in, I can see the cost. I bet at that price, the person is breaking even at 11/hr

I could see spending 3-400 on it. it's pretty neat

A local store had some a while ago @$300ish, still more than it's worth IMO, super shitty third world craftsmanship, more decorative than useful.

Local place had them the other day for $140 and I passed. Probably cheaper made knockoffs but still too rich for me.
