Dont have facebook so not sure what someone there is going to charge for costs + shipping. Just sliced this and it came to a cost of about $5 in materials for ABS. If it were me though I always add in the cost of maintenance of my printer, factor in a print failure rate of 20% (low end with ABS) and time/effort. I would put something like this with someone elses design of around $20 + shipping. if I were doing it.

I am going to print one to see how well it does and if I have to do anything different then just print. Looks like to print everything each one is going to be 15 hours total.
