They're an extremely desirable item, as such a high price is the only way to stop everyone instantly getting them.
Eventually people will buy them and sell them for tc, when that happens, you can work hard and save up for them.
In addition, your arguments all seem based on the fact that "more people should have them", but the more people that have them, the less special they become.
That all in addition to the fact that the potential destruction of the joint market makes it seem like a pretty fair price to me.
