They really aren't terribly priced. I think I paid around 45 bucks for it from Schmucks, and being's that paper filters go for about 10-15 bucks, it pays for itself in a few years cuz you can just wash it out, reoil it (a recharge kit that comes with a bottle of cleaner and oil, enough to do god knows how many washes, I'd say 8-10, is only about 11 bucks), and put it right back in.
