I just installed my 7th K&K Pure Mini, the "$140 K&K" you referanced. First, it's commonly available from a popular AGF sponsor for $90 (if you request the AGF member discount), shipping included.
Second, the OP posted a link to a single transducer system, which K&K markets a couple of different varieties of. Their smaller disc universal lists on the K&K website for $59 if you select the Fishman built-in jack option.

They are available with lower street pricing which puts them at $50.
If you're relating a single disc installation as the OP asked about then it totals zero dollars saved, not including any assembly labor.
