That's a good price, but it's not a Guichard... I own one... it's not like this at all in any sense. Guichard did wonderful work, and this is wonderful, but there're several signs that this is a low-cost Strasbourg instrument, similar to Protin et Freres, but with different hand crutches. Again, though, it's a great price!
