At that price I think he'd barely scrape by with the BOM cost. R&D costs serious money to be very honest and (in my present experience) you burn through electronics and mechanical parts very quickly thanks to mistakes even after you've modeled it all up on the computer. Oh, and for an individual who cannot afford instant shipping it costs plenty of time too. I'm honestly surprised with his claim of putting it all together in 6 months actually if I assume he has a full-time job apart from this.
