Feeder/waterer combo, is it a rip off price wise?

Heres the one I'm looking at

I like how it takes up little floor space, as I have a small coop. I've also been looking for cup waters here in aus but it costs about $40+ for 6 to buy and ship here. Just the cups, no tubing or anything else, and I really don't need 6 or more! Plus I don't feel too confident rigging it up...

I love feeders with the 'bars' to stop the birds swiping their food out. This has that! The one I have now takes up way too much space really.

Any thoughts? Is this way too much to pay or worth it since I'm not really confident to do it myself, and I won't have paid for extra parts I don't need?

That's about £45, which sounds a LOT to me. I'm going to try making one myself. If you're willing to wait, I can tell you how much it cost. It might be relatively similar after all!

I can tell you straight away the cups I bought are these: http://www.regencypoultry.com/drinkers/PlasticDrinkers/cup_drinker.htm
They're HUGE. They're five inches wide and will stick out 3 3/4 inches out the front, and they call them mini lol.

I decided to calculate before I post this... For me to make a set of foot long drinkers & feeders, it's about £76 or 119 AUD. I think I'm gonna contact some international sellers and see how much it'd cost to send abroad!

you'd probably make a killing jsut buying the cups and selling them in pairs as cheap as possible! lol
