That one looks like an aftermarket cover (I almost thought about bidding on it myself). But see those straps on the market.

Make original covers also do not retract -- but that's because they are broken.

I wouldn't surprised if the list price actually is $1158 -- not that you should buy it at that price! If you look around on eBay, you'll see used luggage covers go for around $50 -- but in various conditions. I recently bought one, but it broke during shipping. They're very fragile... For new stuff, I've been looking at davidhonl.com covers -- seems okay, but still not cheap.

Can the holder for the cover be replaced instead of the whole thing? My cover is actually fine it is the holder that broke

If you mean the end caps, yes. The dealer has them for a reasonable price. Imagine that! There was a recent thread and one post says they're like $15 ea end.
