Are you serious Pimoroni? Bare Conductive Cap module using the well known MPR121 for over £35.00 ???  
These are available for less than £1.00 on AliExpress, amongst other suppliers.

The price is probably more to do with what [Bare Conductive](https://www.bareconductive.com/shop/pi-cap/) sell them for. It’s not Pimoroni’s product.

It does seem steep to me even considering manufacturing etc., but at the end of the day, if you don’t like it, don’t buy it.
