    Depends on what you mean by inexpensive. Trawl around the used electronics sections of SSP and look for a replacement, or use a standing VESA mount. Or find someone with a 3D printer who can make a replacement part in polycarbonate (but you'd have to either find an exact model online to print, or have it designed from scratch).

    Rough it up th broken parts with sand paper, clean it, then use some strips of clean roughened up rigid metal as a splint and glue it all together using clamps and 2 part epoxy resin. Won't look nice but it will “fix” it.

    And let the epoxy dry 24 hours before putting weight back on it.

    Don't be foolishly cheap with the repair that might not hold. Buy something like this for a few bucks. Name:  61EgK0Q4Q-L._AC_SL1500_.jpg

    I got option on Amazon, since it's there, I am hopeful of finding in Taobao and probably at SSP as well. thanks all for your wonderful suggestions.

    Use a 2 pack epoxy adhesive and glue the faces of the broken joint together and glue some steel plates on each side and the top. You might need to use a few elastic bands to hold things in place while the glue chemically sets.
