$20 is a pretty cheap mouse. High quality gaming mice are easily in the $60+ category. $88 is a bit pricey, but expecting something like this to be equivalent to a commodity dell mouse is silly.

But this is a brand-new company, with no big-name engineering talent or history of being involved in mouse design or human factors testing, a leader who comes here to talk down to everyone, and they're charging more than Logitech does for their flagship [1].

Economies of scale. Companies start from nothing. So far the reviews have been positive, and the investment isn't exactly significant. Anyhow, best course of action is to wait it out, and see how it performs in time.
