Booking with Avios more expensive than Cash Booking ON EI Website

I have just costed an round trip from Dub to Malaga and the Avios cost for 1 person is 18500 points plus €118.95. Booking the identical flight/dates/times on the EI website is €99.48. To me this appears to be a very poor return for return for Aer Club customers. I will be transferring my Avios to my BA account as Aer Lingus clearly doesn't want customers spending Avios with them. Interested to feedback if anyone has any similar experiences.
