£224 looks fair to slightly good against your local used benchmark: it sits below the £254 median and comfortably inside the central range, though not cheap enough to call a bargain versus the £145 lower quartile. For a portable headphone amp, that makes it a sensible buy rather than a steal.
The appeal here is straightforward: this is the kind of compact iBasso piece people buy for proper transportable listening, with the usual draw of clean drive, good dynamics, and a more serious sonic step-up from built-in outputs. At this price, the real upside is getting a respected portable amp without paying top-of-market money, so if the unit is tidy and complete, it reads as a solid enthusiast pickup.
