That does seem cheap to me but maybe the VIC doesn't get the love the
C64 normally gets, even on ebay.

It is pretty "niche," even as micros go, to design something new for
the VIC-20 rather than the C64.  That said, I couldn't design a power
cord if I tried, so I'll take what I can get.  And of course it
encourages people willing to design and build these gadgets to do
more, so that's a plus, too.
