$235 is a lot of money for me right now, so I’m hesitant to buy an mbira.  But:

$235 for a handmade instrument is so cheap.
$235 will probably mean a lot more to the maker than it does to me.
What better thing to invest in than a musical instrument?
Maybe I’ll ask for some CDs for Christmas and the deze for my birthday?
