OK its a Haier but cheap makes are not normally renowned for cheap parts.
Problem is that there is no one brand that has reasonable prices across the board. A Smeg fan element for example being half the cost of an electrolux EOB one, yet a Smeg ceramic ring is like 3 times that of an electrolux one. I swear manufacturers use the ‘think of a number and double it’ method of pricing spares.
