I think the original AeroPress packaged with the accessories is a good starter kit for a new user who may be completely new to coffee. When I needed to replace my old one this year (too much wear and tear) I costed buying replacement parts vs getting a completely new one snd it wasn't much of a difference... but now I have two funnels, two scoops, two filter holders. Though as someone else commented, increasing the price and also removing the extras doesn't sound right. Having the option to buy only the AeroPress (and pay less) would have been my preference.
Having said that, the accessories are versatile. I use the scoop to transfer beans from the bag/tin to the dosing cup for weighing, and the funnel fits almost perfectly on top of my grinder.
