Not as cheap as a life of a stranger in a big city.

Yes, much, much, much cheaper than the life of a kid.

Used electronics don't sell for much these days, especially the Switch which barely hits around 300 USD new. And then you have to find a fence, and potentially deal with serial numbers being tracked (especially when it comes to violent crime against children, even lethargic police spring into action).
