This is not a bad price for decent wheels... I built a set for a guy who is 6'6 and 360 pounds who can't un-weight the saddle because of an upper body disability so his bike and wheels need to take every hit full on.
Built them at cost and the parts came to $500.00 for wheels you could run on a tandem with no issues.
