Where do you live, 1987?! 😆
Cheap that, fair play. No doubt in different circumstances in terms of set up, tax, VAT, etc though.
There's lots of places offering refurbs and repairs, some a lot better than others (look up tauntonbatdoctor on Insta! 🫣). So, is this good value? Maybe not, but I'm sure it'll be done right. They may sub it out, they may not want refurbs and so if they get some set that price, fair enough. If they don't, they may not care.
Refurbs and repairs done right can be a fair bit of work, plus there are facilities, premises, utilities, grips, stickers, sanders, machinery, polish, sandpaper, binding, glue, scuffs etc. Not too mention expertise, which in itself doesn't come cheap.
I'm not saying it's good value, but if you feel the job you do is worth it and people are willing to pay it, then it is what it is.
