Yes it is cheap, and you get what you pay for.

Anyway, from the point of view of getting a certification worth putting on your CV, with the intention of earning money, anything to do with linux is a waste of time.
Just had a quick look on one of the UK's biggest job sites for Linux vs Solaris jobs:

Linux - 703 jobs
Solaris - 235 jobs

If getting Linux certified meant i had 3 times the chance of getting a job, I'd hardly call it a waste of time.
