You're right it's a shitty item, but you're oh so very wrong on its rarity. I've ran the sarnak cycle for weeks straight for a particular item about a year ago. And during that month of killing the sarnaks nameds (who are already rare themselves, and will drop their loot about 10% of the time), I've seen that staff once maybe twice. Yep that's right, out of the 10'ish different sarnaks that can spawn and rarely drop their crappy loots, you're looking at roughly a 1% chance of getting the item you're looking for every time you get one to spawn. And it takes a while; you have obviously never spent time doing that named cycle. Nobody does, because there's virtually nothing worthwhile dropping from it. As Slave said, good luck finding a cheap staff.
It's what you call a vanity item. Don't like it, don't buy it.
