That's because you're paying for an extremely small-run PowerPC machine for dedicated fans who absolutely want something that can run latest AmigaOS4.
For those who "just" want the cheapest way of running Amiga software, and don't have any particular reason for wanting one of the PPC boxes, an x86 PC with UAE (Amiga emulator) or AROS + UAE is a far cheaper option.
For those who wants something closer to the "classic" hardware, there are a number of FPGA based options with various degrees of advances over the classic hardware.
