Presumably because it compares well with cartridges three times the original price and he saw a business opportunity.

But I dont think it's any worse than $20 for a replacement felt mat for my Heybrook TT2.
$40 for a replacement drive belt.
$400 for a record clamp.
$60 for the Ringmat turntable mat
$30 for a CD sized piece of plastic to put on your CD's
$14 for a green felt tip marker to colour the edge of your CD Green
$600 for a Mana turntable shelf (an essential item apparently for all Linn Sondek owners)
The same goes for equipment stands, speaker cables, interconnect cables, etc. There are snake oil merchants everywhere.
The list is endless. Hence my point about perceived value.
