Well they're way complicated to build and so quite time consuming, and the Delay chip itself and the Voltage Regulator are reasonably spendy, but I could see myself making them for around £100-£120. It just depends, it is a great delay and it's true bypass and all that jazz with high quality components, but it is using a fairly common chip (it's in the PB&J danelectro delay). I dunno whether people would be interested in buying this when you consider you can get one of the Behringer Analogue Delay copies for £25 and one of the Digital copies for like £30-£40. I built it because I wanted to see if I could and I really like it so it will be going on the board. It may even bump off my Deluxe Memory Man.

A more cutdown thing without modulation etc would obviously be cheaper.

I'm anything but sentimental. They'll both go on my board and we'll see which one works for me.
