That is about $150 to get controls alone unless you salvaged.
I assume $500 is the machine itself?
Prusa 3D printers are in this price range now at not nearly that build quality.

I bought the steppers for $3.50 each and the
drivers + CNC shield+ Arduino was another 20$. The frame was about 280$ including ball screws and linear rails. Shipping accounted for about 1/4 of the cost of the machine.
