All in all, if the stand is good quality hardwood, $200 sounds like a bargain. I bought a bench for my Roland home-style electric piano in 1989 (?) and paid $100 for that. Given the fact that a) it's 13 years later, and b) the piano bench is much smaller than 32 pedals -- it probably wouldn't straddle a 17-note pedalboard -- the extra cost doesn't sound that bad.
