Components are not that expensive. I know, I sell electronic components. A controller might cost $50 (Guessing, but it might be less), but the price of a product have to pay for the people working with them and overhead. Look at this controllers:
http://www.himodel.com/electric/HiMo...200A-OPTO.html (200A up to 7S lipos) and this one
http://lightflightrc.com/HTML/products/SP_100A_ESC.htm (100A up to 7S and only $39.95). They are not fancy controllers, but they might use the same amount of components. I have mentioned a 1/8 scale truggy and buggy chassis I have designed and I have sent the drawings to Mike. I will only use 10S to 12S lipos with them.
