Well the only thing I am not sure about is that top piece that connects all of the hoses. Other than that pice it really just looks like buckets, netpots, a timer, a water pump for the main res, and the piping to send the water up and out of the res where that spider device takes over. Everything there looks pretty readily available and cheap. I have never used a drip system so I don't really know what that top piece is called, but I can't see that being too expensive either. So while no, I don't have plans to build it, it looks very cheap to assemble all of the needed parts, and I could then probably figure out how it all goes together from there. But I definitely would not purchase that for $250 knowing I could build it for way less.
