Unfamiliar phrase: ありきたりっちゃありきたり


I just came across an unfamiliar phrase: ありきたりっちゃありきたり.

Does anyone know what this means? Mainly its because I don't know what the
function of the っちゃ is here.




「～～っちゃ」 is a common colloquial pronunciation of 「～～と[言]{い}えば」. It is heard
mainly, if not exclusively, in Kanto.

> 「word or phrase + と言えば + _**same**_ word or phrase」 = "somewhat
> (word/phrase)", "(word/phrase) to a degree", etc.

It is a way of affirming a quality partially, if not entirely.

> 「ありきたりっちゃありきたり」
>
> = "somewhat conventional", "kind of ordinary", "just another ~~", etc.

The best translation would depend on the context.
