They normally go for about 100 to 160 $.

Would you like to take a look than go for: eGun - Der Marktplatz für Jäger, Schützen und Angler

A good example is this one: eGun

Or just browse: eGun

Why are they so expensive in your country? Otherwise I could also ask:
Why are they so cheap here in Europe, especially in Germany.

The answer: Any one wants big bore starting with 357/38.
And we are restricted by law to just a certain amount of handguns unless you are intensively do target shooting at championships or you have a special collector's licence.

As the normal hunter or target shooter you may have just two handguns.
Elmer;

This looks to be the start of an export business (.22 revolvers back to the US), except the government here would make it very difficult.

Are .22 semi-automatic pistols just as inexpensive in Germany?
