If that were under $200, it would be on its way to my house already.  It's way overpriced IMHO.  I could make one just like it pretty cheap without all that extra routing.

Way way overpriced. Compare that to some of greatdealz1967's reasonable past offerings.

In this case I wouldn't call you cheap. That seems pretty high to me.

Yeah, those sellers are always way off the mark.  And in this economy, they have their heads buried up their own...........well, you know.

I'd say alder. And agreed way too much money.
