I do a lot of appliqueing...I wouldn't pay that much!!! BUT, I have a pair of really tiny scissors, with fine points that I use. I applique using the freezer paper method. I trace the pattern on freezer paper, iron it onto the fabric, cut the fabric out adding 1/4" seam allowance and then turn the fabric's 1/4" under and sew. Those tiny scissors are useful for cutting into the seam line on the curves.....I don't tend to "overcut" like I do with large scissors. But for $28.00!!!! Nope - I wouldn't pay that much! My scissor cost me $3.00!!
