I'm not sure why people think this is particularly expensive, for what it is. While not cheap, it is, after all, a ceramic cooker, and it appears to be larger and cheaper than the mini-table-top version of the BGE, which is the closest thing I can think of to compare it with.
I haven't had any direct experience with the Earthfire, so have no idea how good a cooker it is. But the price is comparable with similar products in the market. As for the "free pizza peel", it is being sold primarily as a pizza oven. I suspect that if it didn't come with a peel, the same naysayers would be saying "it doesn't even come with a peel".
My original post was simply that I had come across this, and thought it interesting enough to mention here. I definitely think it comes under the category of "New Toys". So I don't see why folk think this is particularly outrageous.
