Of course not! L405 mirrors are circa £300 too, the heating elements seem more robust than the L319 / L322 ones though.
Roythebus seems to be someone that buys cheap, buys twice three or four times, if his postings elsewhere are an indicator.

My o/s one has now gone the way of the n/s a couple of years ago -the brown tinge of death 😔
 
To be fair, they generally have a life in excess of fifteen years before the electrochromatic film starts to die - no consolation if you're the one that has to replace them though!.
 
Probably one of these cheapo tinted ones I bought 6 years ago as a stop gap until I found the proper one :)

They have both done well. I honestly can't remember when the n/s went. The post is on here somewhere, but I reckon 2 - 4 yrs ago. The o/s started being silly just after I replaced the n/s but I have lived with it. I have been looking, in vain, in case I get the same luck and find someone selling new old stock.
The point about the price was to show that unlike other marques, the price does not come down as the model ages. Mine is 22yrs old and the wing mirror glass is around £300, 🙈
